Escape scientists shed light on scarless wound healing.
Escape scientists, Drs. Hantash and Zhao, shed light on the intricate process of mammalian wound healing. This critical biological repair activity involves a coordinated series of interactions across a variety of tissue types and cellular lineages. In adult tissue, the successful completion of wound healing inevitably results in the formation of scar. However, animal studies of embryonic tissue have shown that early gestation fetal wounds heal with complete restoration of tissue structure and function. The exact mechanisms underlying scarless healing in the fetus are discussed in their article.
