Researchers at University of California San Diego School of Medicine have discovered a previously unrecognized mechanism by which Staphylococcus aureus—one of the most common causes of skin and soft ...

Despite advancements in treating wounds, the molecular mechanisms behind wound healing is not fully understood. Now, researchers at the University of California, Irvine (UCI), have identified a new ...

Wound healing is a highly specialized dynamic process for the repair of damaged/injured tissues through an intricate mechanism. Any failure in the normal wound healing process results in abnormal scar ...

During metastasis, cancer cells break off from the primary tumor and travel to other locations in the body through the blood or lymph. Credit: Gunilla Elam/Science Source Summary Scientists at the ...

When you’ve had a wound that required stitches, the recovery period can feel frustratingly slow. Whether from surgery, an accident, or another injury, properly cared for stitches not only heal faster ...

Schematic illustration of the various microenvironment-sensitive bioactive dressing strategies developed for DW management, based on their mechanisms of response, can be primarily categorized into ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract The molecular mechanism underlying the promotion of wound healing by TGF-β1 is incompletely understood. We report that TGF-β1 regulates the ...

Tested on rats, the stitches proved effective in treating wounds and could offer a cost-effective alternative to traditional sutures. Study: A bioabsorbable ...

The study, which includes the first resource detailing the role of microRNAs in the wound-repair process, shows that aberrant levels of a trio of microRNAs may impair healing in venous ulcers. The ...
