Journal ArticleDOI
A porcine deep dermal partial thickness burn model with hypertrophic scarring
Leila Cuttle,Margit Kempf,Gael E. Phillips,Julie Mill,Mark Hayes,John F. Fraser,Xue-Qing Wang,Roy M. Kimble +7 more
TL;DR: Immunohistochemistry and electron microscopy showed that the porcine hypertrophic Scar appears similar to human hypertrophic scarring.
Journal ArticleDOI
Collagen in the scarless fetal skin wound: Detection with Picrosirius‐polarization
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed an ovine model of deep dermal, partial-thickness burn where the fetus heals scarlessly and the lamb heals with scar. And they compared the comparison of collagen structure between these two different mechanisms of healing may elucidate the process of scarless wound healing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antimicrobial efficacy of a novel silver hydrogel dressing compared to two common silver burn wound dressings: Acticoat™ and PolyMem Silver(®).
TL;DR: In this paper, a novel burn wound hydrogel dressing was developed which is composed of 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonic acid sodium salt with silver nanoparticles.
Journal ArticleDOI
The optimal temperature of first aid treatment for partial thickness burn injuries.
Leila Cuttle,Margit Kempf,Olena Kravchuk,Gael E. Phillips,Julie Mill,Xue-Qing Wang,Roy M. Kimble +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a porcine model of deep dermal partial thickness burn injury, various cooling techniques (15 degreesC running water, 2 degrees C running water and ice) of first aid were applied for 20 minutes compared with a control (ambient temperature).
Journal ArticleDOI
Vitronectin: growth factor complexes hold potential as a wound therapy approach.
Zee Upton,Leila Cuttle,Anthony Noble,Margit Kempf,Gemma Topping,Jos Malda,Yan Xie,Julie Mill,Damien G. Harkin,Olena Kravchuk,David I. Leavesley,Roy M. Kimble +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report that complexes comprising IGF and IGF-binding proteins bound to the extracellular matrix protein vitronectin (VN) significantly enhance cellular functions relevant to wound repair in human skin keratinocytes in two-and three-dimensional in vitro cell models and are active, even in the presence of wound fluid.
