Abstract: ATAC-seq Reveals Heterogeneity of Fibroblasts During Transition from Scarless Fetal to Scar-Forming Adult Wound Repair
نویسندگان
چکیده
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective review was performed of a prospectively collected database of all microsurgical breast reconstructions from 2008 to 2015. A novel text messaging system was introduced in 2013 and programmed to send text messages alert when the tissue oximetry readings suggested potential flap compromise based on established thresholds. Patient demographics and complications, including rate of re-exploration and flap loss (partial and total) were assessed.

Fetal wound healing current perspectives.
Early in gestation, fetal wounds are capable of healing scarlessly. Scarless healing in the fetus is characterized by regeneration of an organized dermis with normal appendages and by a relative lack of inflammation. Although there is a transition period between scarless and scar-forming repair, scarless healing also depends on wound size and the organ involved. The ability to heal scarlessly, ...
متن کاملThe Biology of Scarless Fetal Wound Repair
Background Data Fetal skin wound healing is characterized by the absence of scar tissue formation. This unique repair process is not dependent on the sterile, aqueous intrauterine environment. The differences between fetal and adult skin wound healing appear to reflect processes intrinsic to fetal tissue, such as the unique fetal fibroblasts, a more rapid and ordered deposition and turnover of ...
متن کاملCellular and Molecular Characteristics of Scarless versus Fibrotic Wound Healing
The purpose of this paper is to compare and contrast the discrete biology differentiating fetal wound repair from its adult counterpart. Integumentary wound healing in mammalian fetuses is essentially different from wound healing in adult skin. Adult (postnatal) skin wound healing is a complex and well-orchestrated process spurred by attendant inflammation that leads to wound closure with scar ...
متن کاملScarless wound healing in the mammalian fetus.
Fetal wound healing is a remarkable process that is fundamentally different than postnatal healing. Healing of primarily closed, linear wounds occurs rapidly and without scarring. In late gestational age fetal sheep, a transition to adult-like healing occurs as evidenced by minimal scar formation. Acute inflammation is not involved, fibroblast recruitment and proliferation is minimal, the matri...
متن کاملWound healing in mammals and amphibians: toward limb regeneration in mammals.
Mammalian fetal skin regenerates perfectly, but adult skin repairs by the formation of scar tissue. The cause of this imperfect repair by adult skin is not understood. In contrast, wounded adult amphibian (urodeles and anurans) skin is like mammalian fetal skin in that it repairs by regeneration, not scarring. Scar-free wound repair in adult Xenopus is associated with expression of the paired h...
