Role of Growth Factors in Cutaneous Wound Healing: A Review
Open accessAbstract
The well-orchestrated, complex series of events resulting in the repair of cutaneous wounds are, at least in part, regulated by polypeptide growth factors. This review provides a detailed overview of the known functions, interactions, and mechanisms of action of growth factors in the context of the overall repair process in cutaneous wounds. An overview of the cellular and molecular events involved in soft tissue repair is initially presented, followed by a review of widely studied growth factors and a discussion of commonly utilized preclinical animal models. The article concludes with a summary of the preliminary results from human clinical trials evaluating the effects of growth factors in the healing of chronic skin ulcers. Throughout, the interactions among the growth factors in the wound-healing process are emphasized.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
