wound healing Flashcards
healing
Follows tissue damage
- attempt to restore integrity to an injured tissue (back to how they were)
- follows the inflammatory process (often overlaps)
resolution
return to normal
regeneration
lost tissue replaced by same type of tissue to restore tissue
repair
tissue lost replaced by firbois scare (via granulation tissue)
regeneration vs repair headings for comparision
cell type involved
tissue architecture
amount of tissue lost
cell type involved (regeneration vs repair )
labial continual cell division vs stable infrqeuen cell divison
tissue architecture regeneration vs repair
simple vs complex tissue
amount of tissue lost regeneration vs repair
small vs large
steps for repair
1) endotheoal cells and fibroblasts at edges (form loose meshwork/bridge)
2) these migrate into area forming loose connective tissue, granulation tissue
3) increase in blood vessels and collagen
4) vascularity decreases and fibrous scar formed
cells involved in the repair process
- macrophages (phagocytosis any debris cell ect and secretion to promote wound healing
- fibroblasts (collagen and other tissue support)
- endothelial cells (nutrition)
what does slough contain
neutrophuils
granulation tissue conposition
- Inflammatory
- endothelial cells
- fibroblasts
phases of wound healing
1) haemostasis
2) inflammation
3) proliferation
4) remodelling
haemostasis
vessel rupture, bleeding
- activation of coagulation cascade
- vasoconstriction (5-10 mins serotonin, adrenaline)
- thrombus formation, fibrin and fibrinogen glue would together
cells involved in inflamamtion
neutrophls
macrophages
neutrophils inflammation
- recruited from circulation (why we need vasodilation)
- remove bacteria and forign material
- phagocytosis and enzymes
- short live (2 days)
macrophages inflammation
- recruited from blood monocytes (circulation) and those already resident in the tissue, proliferate locally
- phagocytose of remaining debris
Further secretion cytokines and growth factors by both (secret further cytokines) - both follow the chemoattracts to where they are needed
proliferation step in wound healing key cells and roles
key cell- fibroblast
- proliferate, migrate and become myofibroblast (change phenotype, gives them some contractile properties to pull wound together)
- synthesis of matrix proteins eg collagen
- proliferation and migration of cells over wound bed
Key cell – keratinocyte
- re epithelialisation
- angiogenesis (new blood vessel formation)
remodelling in wound healing steps
- provisional matrix remodelled
- reduction in cell and capillary density (less red)
- protases (collagenases) required for remodelling ECM (Scaffold and chemical signalling matrix)
- wound contraction (using proteins within the cytoskeleton to pull together)
- type III collagen replaced by bundles of type I
- strength relies on cross linked collagen I (vitamin C)
- 7-10 days wound = 10% strength (provisional matrix)
- 2-3 months 70-80%
