Live imaging the Foreign Body Response reveals how dampening inflammation reduces fibrosis
2018-12-17
Abstract excerpt
Implanting biomaterials such as surgical sutures leads to wound inflammation and a Foreign Body Response (FBR), which can result in scarring and ultimately biomaterial rejection. To investigate the cell and signalling events that underlie FBR, we use live imaging of zebrafish reporter lines to observe how inflammation and angiogenesis differ between a healthy acute wound versus suture implantation. We observe infl...
