A fibrocontractive mechanochemical model of dermal wound closure incorporating realistic growth factor kinetics
Fibroblasts and their activated phenotype, myofibroblasts, are the primary cell types involved in the contraction associated with dermal wound healing. Recent experimental evidence indicates that the transformation from fibroblasts to myofibroblasts involves two distinct processes: The cells are sti...
