Differences in Hypertrophic Scar Fibroblasts according to Scar Severity: Expression of Transforming Growth Factor beta1 at the mRNA and Protein Levels

Differences in Hypertrophic Scar Fibroblasts according to Scar Severity: Expression of Transforming Growth Factor beta1 at the mRNA and Protein Levels

Background Hypertrophic scars result from excessive collagen deposition and increased transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF-beta1) levels. We hypothesized that the expression of TGF-beta1 mRNA and protein would increase with the clinical severity of hypertrophic scars. Methods Primary dermal fibrob...
