Journal ArticleDOI

Wound Macrophages Express TGF-α and Other Growth Factors in Vivo: Analysis by mRNA Phenotyping

TL;DR: Macrophages isolated from a wound site, and not exposed to cell culture conditions, expressed messenger RNA transcripts for TGF-alpha, T GF-beta, platelet-derived growth factor A-chain, and insulin-like growth factor-1 by a novel method for RNA analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxygen tension regulates the expression of angiogenesis factor by macrophages

TL;DR: The control of angiogenesis in wound healing may be the result of macrophages responding to tissue oxygen tension without the necessity of interacting with other cell types or biochemical signals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large induction of keratinocyte growth factor expression in the dermis during wound healing

TL;DR: The results suggest that basal keratinocytes are stimulated by dermally derived KGF during wound healing and implicate a unique role of this member of the FGF family in wound repair.
Journal ArticleDOI

Secretion of metalloproteinases by stimulated capillary endothelial cells. II. Expression of collagenase and stromelysin activities is regulated by endogenous inhibitors.

TL;DR: It is shown that enzyme activities of procollagenase and prostromelysin are revealed after conditioned medium is analyzed by gel filtration chromatography or by electrophoresis on sodium dodecyl sulfate-substrate gels, suggesting that endogenous inhibitors regulate the expression of metalloproteinases secreted by endothelial cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Degradation of connective tissue matrices by macrophages. I. Proteolysis of elastin, glycoproteins, and collagen by proteinases isolated from macrophages.

TL;DR: The data indicate that macrophages at inflammatory sites contain and secrete proteolytic enzymes that could degrade the extracellular matrix, and human granulocyte elastase effectively degraded the matrix glycoproteins, elastin, and, to a lesser extent, collagens.
