A mathematical model for fibro-proliferative wound healing disorders.
The normal process of dermal wound healing fails in some cases, due to fibro-proliferative disorders such as keloid and hypertrophic scars. These types of abnormal healing may be regarded as pathologically excessive responses to wounding in terms of fibroblastic cell profiles and their inflammatory growth-factor mediators. Biologically, these conditions are poorly understood and current medical...
متن کاملA New Mathematical Model to Investigate Drug Treatment on the Overall Process of Wound Healing
The absence of a universally accepted mathematical model for assessment of the effectiveness of drugs in the process of wound healing is one of the problems the health professionals have been faced. In this study, an “empirical” mathematical model is presented to evaluate its reliability from an experimental viewpoint and from a comparative aspect with previous models used to study wound healin...
متن کاملA mathematical model of wound healing and subsequent scarring.
Wound healing is a complex process involving the delicate interaction between elements that vary widely in nature and size scales, from the nanometre level, such as molecules, to cells measured in micrometres, and fibres with width and length measured on both scales. Hybrid approaches, where each species is represented by a model on an appropriate size scale, have received attention recently. I...
متن کاملA mathematical model of intercellular signaling during epithelial wound healing.
Recent experiments monitoring the healing process of wounded epithelial monolayers have demonstrated the necessity of MAPK activation for coordinated cell movement after damage. This MAPK activity is characterized by two wave-like phenomena. One MAPK "wave" that originates immediately after injury, propagates deep into the cell sheet, away from the edge, and then rebounds back to the wound inte...
