Journal ArticleDOI

Healed porcine incisions previously treated with a surgical incision management system: mechanical, histomorphometric, and gene expression properties.

TL;DR: Early application of SIM improved the quality of healed porcine incisions in terms of mechanical, histomorphometric, and gene-expression properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

Epidermal Micrografts Produced via an Automated and Minimally Invasive Tool Form at the Dermal/Epidermal Junction and Contain Proliferative Cells That Secrete Wound Healing Growth Factors

TL;DR: The new technique of epidermal harvesting was shown to create viable micrografts with minimal patient discomfort and no donor-site scarring, and retained their original keratinocyte structure, which is critical for potential re-epithelialization and repigmentation of a wound environment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative analysis of global gene expression profiles between diabetic rat wounds treated with vacuum-assisted closure therapy, moist wound healing or gauze under suction.

TL;DR: This study is the first to assess wound healing by whole genome interrogation in a diabetic rat model treated with different healing modalities and indicated major differences with respect to both number of genes showing fold changes and pathway regulation between the three different wound treatments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Changes of anabolic processes at the cellular and molecular level in chronic wounds under topical negative pressure can be revealed by transcriptome analysis

TL;DR: It is shown that TNP with ROCF transforms the chronic wound from its inflammation (non‐healing) state into more of a progressive, healing phenotype from a molecular point of view with expression of genes that are commonly associated with these terms.

Identification and visualization of micrografts for monitoring epithelialization

TL;DR: In this paper, an apparatus and methods for distinguishing outgrowth of cells from surrounding biological material are disclosed, and the method may include delivering a marker to cellular material originating from a donor tissue site, followed by transplanting the cellular material from the transplant tissue site to a recipient tissue site.
