TGF-
PDGF
FGF
EGF
IGF-1
Etc. KGF, CTGF, TNF, interleukins
TGF-
Function ;
stimulates the deposition of collagen and other matrix components
inhibits collagenase activity
blocks plasminogen inhibitor
enhance angiogenesis
chemotactic for fibroblasts, monocytes, and macrophages
PDGF
Function ;
attract the neutrophil, macrophage, and fibroblast to the wound
powerful mitogen of the neutrophil, macrophage, and fibroblast
stimulate fibroblasts to synthesize new extracellula matrix
increase the amount of fibroblast-secreted collagenase
FGF
Function;
stimulate endothelial cells to divide and form
new capillaries
chemoattract endothelial cells and fibroblasts
EGF
Function;
stimulates mitosis in epidermal cells and
fibroblasts
increase the secretion of collagenase by
fibroblasts
WOUND HEALING PHASES
Inflammatory phase
Proliferative phase
Maturational phase
Inflammatory phase
disruption, platelets
angiogenesis
fibroplasia
epithelization
Angiogenesis
Stimulants ;
tissue hypoxia major stimulus
TNF-, heparin, VEGF, FGF-1, FGF-2
The fibroplasia phase is
characterized by
movement of wound
macrophages into the site
of injury, which in turn
attract fibroblasts. The
fibroblasts then repair the
site by producing new
connective tissue matrix.
Maturational phase ( = remodeling )
Epithelization
Contraction
