Table of Contents Previous Next Granulation Tissue Derives Its Name from One of Its Chief Components, Sprout- Ing Capillaries Th ATLAS OF HEAD AND NECK PATHOLOGY GRANULATION TISSUE GRANULATION TISSUE Granulation tissue derives its name from one of its chief components, sprout- ing capillaries that tend to protrude from the surface of a healing wound producing minute red granules. The new capillaries at first are solid but shortly develop lumens containing blood cells (angiogenesis); some of these persist while others are resorbed. Cells and proliferating capillaries are the two major components of granulation tissue. The cells are chiefly fibroblasts and inflammatory cells— macrophages, lymphocytes, plasma cells, and neutrophils depending on the stage and development of the granula- tion tissue and the presence of infection. Fibroblasts appear early and form collagen. As the tissue matures the fibroblasts come to look less active and eventually become the chief cell of the final scar. Similarly the vascular tissue is reabsorbed and in the final scar may be inconspicuous. Granulation tissue, pyogenic; small capillaries are forming (small arrows), some as yet without lumens.

  • Collagen in Wound Healing
    bioengineering Review Collagen in Wound Healing Shomita S. Mathew-Steiner, Sashwati Roy and Chandan K. Sen * Indiana Center for Regenerative Medicine and Engineering, School of Medicine, Indiana University, Indianapolis, IN 46202, USA; [email protected] (S.S.M.-S.); [email protected] (S.R.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-317-278-2735 Abstract: Normal wound healing progresses through inflammatory, proliferative and remodeling phases in response to tissue injury. Collagen, a key component of the extracellular matrix, plays critical roles in the regulation of the phases of wound healing either in its native, fibrillar conformation or as soluble components in the wound milieu. Impairments in any of these phases stall the wound in a chronic, non-healing state that typically requires some form of intervention to guide the process back to completion. Key factors in the hostile environment of a chronic wound are persistent inflammation, increased destruction of ECM components caused by elevated metalloproteinases and other enzymes and improper activation of soluble mediators of the wound healing process. Collagen, being central in the regulation of several of these processes, has been utilized as an adjunct wound therapy to promote healing. In this work the significance of collagen in different biological processes relevant to wound healing are reviewed and a summary of the current literature on the use of collagen-based products in wound care is provided.

This has negative consequences for both the patient and the medical system and considering the growing prevalence of diabetes, it will be a significant medical, social, and economic burden in the near future. Hence, the need for therapeutic alternatives to the current available treatments that, although various, do not guarantee a rapid and definite reparative process, appears necessary. We here analyzed current treatments for wound healing, but mainly focused the attention on few classes of drugs that are already in the market with different indications, but that have shown in preclinical and few clinical trials the potentiality to be used in the treatment of impaired wound healing. In particular, repurposing of the antiglycemic agents dipeptidylpeptidase 4 (DPP4) inhibitors and metformin, but also, statins and phenyotin have been analyzed.

We found that transplantation of CS from adipose-derived MSC resulted in reduction of fibrosis and recovery of skin structure with its appendages (hair and cutaneous glands). Despite short retention of CS on ulcer surface (3–7 days) it induced profound changes in granulation tissue (GT) structure, increasing its thickness and altering vascularization pattern with reduced blood vessel density and increased maturation of blood vessels.

R. China Received March 7, 2018; Accepted July 14, 2018; Epub November 15, 2018; Published November 30, 2018 Abstract: Dysfunction of macrophage phenotype transition is a primary reason for wound healing failure caused by persistent inflammation. Huiyang Shengji Extract (HSE) is a Traditional Chinese Medicine prescription for treating chronic wounds. Little is known about the underlying molecular mechanism of HSE. This study aim to investigate the effect of HSE on macrophage phenotype transition in chronic skin wound of mice and macrophages in vitro. Balb/c mice were randomly divided into four groups: control (normal wound-NS treated), model (delayed wound-NS treat- ed), HSE-treated groups, and bFGF-treated groups. The immunosuppressive mice were operated by full-thickness excision. Macrophage phenotype markers on the wound were analyzed by immunohistochemistry, real-time PCR, and Western blot. The in vitro cytotoxicity and phagocytosis of macrophages was assessed by CCK-8 and neutral red assays. Macrophage 1/2 (M1/M2) markers were analyzed using ELISA, flow cytometry, and real-time PCR. The results showed delayed wound healing in immunosuppressed mice. HSE promoted macrophage recruitment to the wounded tissue, decreased the expression of iNOS and IL-6, and increased the level of CD206, VEGF, and TGF-β during granulation tissue formation.

  • Management of Over-Granulation in a Diabetic Foot Ulcer: a Clinical Experience Krishnaprasad I N1, Soumya V2, Abdulgafoor S3
    19 Case Report Management of Over-Granulation in a Diabetic Foot Ulcer: A Clinical Experience Krishnaprasad I N1, Soumya V2, Abdulgafoor S3 Abstract Over-granulation or exuberant granulation tissue is a common problem encountered in the care of chronic wounds, especially that of diabetic foot ulcers. There are several potential options for the treatment of this challenging problem. Some have an immediate short term effect but may have a longer term unfavourable effect, for example, silver nitrate application and surgical excision, which may delay wound healing by reverting the wound back to the inflammatory phase of healing. Other products, such as foams and silver dressings may offer some effect in short term, but their long term effects are questionable. The more recent research supports Haelan cream and tape as an efficacious and cost effective treatment for over-granulation in a variety of wound types. The future of treating over-granulation may lie with surgical lasers, since lasers can not only remove over-granulation tissue but will also cauterise small blood vessels and are very selective, leaving healing cells alone while removing excess and unhealthy tissue. Recently Drs Lain and Carrington have demonstrated the utility of imiquimod, an immune-modulator with anti-angiogenic properties, in the treatment exuberant granulation tissue, in a patient with long standing diabetic foot ulcer, resistant to other forms of therapy. We adapted a modified version of their protocol in the management of a similar patient in our hospital and achieved a good result in lesser time than the former. Keywords: Over-granulation, diabetic foot ulcer, imiquimod.

  • Angiogenesis in Wound Healing
    5 Angiogenesis in Wound Healing Ricardo José de Mendonça Department of Biological Sciences Federal University of Triangulo Mineiro Brazil 1. Introduction Angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels from pre-existing, vessels is a crucial process for tumor growth and metastasis (Folkman 1990; Kaafarani, Fernandez-Sauze et al. 2009). The new vessels supply the tumor cells with nutrients and oxygen and ensure efficient drainage of metabolites. Under normal conditions, a tissue or tumor cannot grow beyond 1 to 2 mm in diameter without neovascularization. This distance is defined by limits in the diffusion of oxygen and metabolites, such as glucose and amino acids (Folkman 1971). In addition to supplying nutrients for tumor growth, angiogenesis is also a gateway for tumor cells and signals to the bloodstream. This direct communication with the bloodstream is essential for the dissemination and metastasis of cancer. After their arrival and deployment in distant organs, metastatic cells again induce angiogenesis in order to support tumor growth (Eichhorn, Kleespies et al. 2007). As well as this important role of angiogenesis in tumor growth, the whole process of tissue regeneration depends on a new intake of oxygen and metabolites. Growth of new cells for regeneration involves a large energy demand that occurs for the process of cellular mitosis. Therefore, understanding the biochemical mechanisms involved in angiogenesis is necessary for developing interventions in complex tissue regeneration processes. Since the hypothesis proposed by the surgeon Judah Folkman in the early 70's, which indicated that the inhibition of angiogenesis as a therapeutic target that could halt or even reduce tumor growth (Folkman 1971), intense and successful research on the molecular mechanisms of angiogenesis tumor began.
