Cutaneous Nod2 Expression Regulates the Skin Microbiome and Wound Healing in a Murine Model
22 Jun 2017
Abstract excerpt
The skin microbiome exists in dynamic equilibrium with the host, but when the skin is compromised, bacteria can colonize the wound and impair wound healing. Thus, the interplay between normal skin microbial interactions versus pathogenic microbial interactions in wound repair is important. Bacteria are recognized by innate host pattern recognition receptors, and we previously showed an important role for the...
