  2. 6. Stimulation of tendon repair by platelet concentrate, CDMP-2 and mechanical loading in animal models

    Author : Olena Virchenko; Per Aspenberg; Jon Karlsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Achilles tendon; injuries; physiology; Blood platelets; tendon injuries; physiopathology; therapy; wound healing; Orthopaedics; Ortopedi;

    Abstract : Growth factor delivery may be useful to accelerate the rate of tendon healing. We studied Platelet Concentrate, which in effect can be regarded as a cocktail of growth factors relevant for tendon healing. READ MORE

  4. 7. Plasminogen : a pleiotropic inflammatory regulator in radiation-induced wound formation and wound repair

    Author : Mahsa Fallah; Tor Ny; Malgorzata Wilczynska; Robert Medcalf; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The plasminogen activator (PA) system plays important roles in many physiological and pathological processes, including inflammation and wound healing. Plasmin, the central component of the PA system, is a broad-spectrum serine protease that is derived from its inactive precursor form, plasminogen. READ MORE

  5. 8. Inflammation and neutrophil recruitment in healing of colonic anastomosis

    Author : Peter Månsson; Kirurgi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; experimetnal; anastomotic healing; Inflammation; neutrophil redruitment; orthopaedics; traumatology; Kirurgi; ortopedi; traumatologi;

    Abstract : Wound healing is a multistep process with an initial inflammatory response, followed by synthesis of extracellular matrix components and finalized by a repair phase. One main goal was to determine the impact and adhesive mechanisms of neutrophil recruitment in anastomotic healing in the colon. READ MORE

  6. 9. Treatment of Skin Wounds with Cell Transplantation and Gene Transfer

    Author : Tor Svensjö; Lunds universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; pigs; gene regulation; cell culture; fibroblasts; keratinocytes; wound healing; skin; gene transfer; Transplantation; gene therapy; Surgery; orthopaedics; traumatology; Kirurgi; ortopedi; traumatologi;

    Abstract : Background: A large number of different wound coverings have been used in order to improve the wound microenvironment, and thus accelerate repair. Since almost two centuries, clinicians and researchers have developed techniques for skin transplantation. READ MORE

  7. 10. The human antimicrobial protein hCAP18/LL37 in wound healing and cell proliferation

    Author : Johan Heilborn; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Innate immunity; antimicrobial peptides; LL-37; epithelial cell; keratinocytes; proliferation; reepithelialization; wound healing; tissue repair; angiogenesis; tumor growth; vitamin D;

    Abstract : Epithelia constitute the principal barriers separating the host and the potentially injurious environment, and defence of this interface is therefore essential. Antimicrobial peptides are key effector molecules of the innate immune system. READ MORE
