The Electrical Response to Injury: Molecular Mechanisms and Wound Healing.
Significance: Natural, endogenous electric fields (EFs) and currents arise spontaneously after wounding of many tissues, especially epithelia, and are necessary for normal healing. This wound electrical activity is a long-lasting and regulated response. Enhancing or inhibiting this electrical activity increases or decreases wound healing, respectively. Cells that are responsible for wound closu...
متن کاملElectrical stimulation to accelerate wound healing
BACKGROUND There are several applications of electrical stimulation described in medical literature to accelerate wound healing and improve cutaneous perfusion. This is a simple technique that could be incorporated as an adjunctive therapy in plastic surgery. The objective of this review was to evaluate the results of randomized clinical trials that use electrical stimulation for wound healing....
متن کاملThe molecular biology in wound healing & non-healing wound
The development of molecular biology and other new biotechnologies helps us to recognize the wound healing and non-healing wound of skin in the past 30 years. This review mainly focuses on the molecular biology of many cytokines (including growth factors) and other molecular factors such as extracellular matrix (ECM) on wound healing. The molecular biology in cell movement such as epidermal cel...
متن کاملElectrical Stimulation And Wound Healing References
Evidence is reviewed (8 studies involving 215 clinical patients with ischemic skin ulcers and 7 animal tissue or tissue culture studies) that electrical stimulation of fibroblast cells accelerates the intracellular biosynthesis necessary to form new granulation tissue in a healing wound, and that both a direct local tissue effect and a circulatory improvement occur. A model is presented in whic...
متن کاملTheme issue: Wound healing mechanisms.
976 Wound healing disorders represent an important medical problem. This is particularly relevant for the elderly, who frequently suffer from complex disease states such as diabetes, venous stasis, or physical immobility, contributing to the development of chronic ulcers. In 1996, 6.5 million people in the U.S. suffered from skin ulcers, with the annual costs for diabetic ulcer treatment alone ...
