Wound healing in Mac-1 deficient mice.
Mac-1 (CD11b/CD18) is a macrophage receptor that plays several critical roles in macrophage recruitment and activation. Because macrophages are essential for proper wound healing, the impact of Mac-1 deficiency on wound healing is of significant interest. Prior studies have shown that Mac-1-/- mice exhibit deficits in healing, including delayed wound closure in scalp and ear wounds. This study ...
متن کاملAccelerated wound healing in tumor necrosis factor receptor p55-deficient mice with reduced leukocyte infiltration.
To clarify biological roles of tumor necrosis factor receptor p55 (TNF-Rp55) -mediated signals in wound healing, skin excisions were prepared in BALB/c (WT) and TNF-Rp55-deficient (KO) mice. In WT mice, the wound area was reduced to 50% of the original area 6 days after injury, with angiogenesis and collagen accumulation. Histopathologically, reepithelialization rate was approximately 80% 6 day...
متن کاملImpaired cutaneous wound healing in interleukin-6-deficient and immunosuppressed mice.
It has been postulated that an inflammatory response after cutaneous wounding is a prerequisite for healing, and inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin-6 (IL-6), might be intimately involved in this process. IL-6-deficient transgenic mice (IL-6 KO) displayed significantly delayed cutaneous wound healing compared with wild-type control animals, requiring up to threefold longer to heal. This...
متن کاملImpaired wound healing and angiogenesis in eNOS-deficient mice.
A role for nitric oxide (NO) in wound healing has been proposed; however, the absolute requirement of NO for wound healing in vivo and the contribution of endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) have not been determined. Experiments were carried out using eNOS gene knockout (KO) mice to determine the requirement for eNOS on wound closure and wound strength. Excisional wound closure was significantly del...
متن کاملGender Affects Skin Wound Healing in Plasminogen Deficient Mice
The fibrinolytic activity of plasmin plays a fundamental role in resolution of blood clots and clearance of extravascular deposited fibrin in damaged tissues. These vital functions of plasmin are exploited by malignant cells to accelerate tumor growth and facilitate metastases. Mice lacking functional plasmin thus display decreased tumor growth in a variety of cancer models. Interestingly, this...
