Epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in cutaneous wound healing: Where we are and where we are heading

Abstract excerpt

Cutaneous wound healing occurs in distinct yet overlapping steps with the end goal of reforming a stratified epithelium to restore epidermal barrier function. A key component of this process is re-epithelialization, which involves the proliferation and migration of epidermal keratinocytes surrounding the wound.
