Abstract excerpt
To overcome the difficulties of studying wounding and wound repopulation in monolayer systems, a 3-dimensional model of wound repopulation has been developed which allows the in vitro investigation of fibroblast migration in response to experimental wounding. This model was utilized to determine whether fibroblasts derived from sites which demonstrate preferential healing (child and oral mucosal fibroblasts)...
