Mitogenic activity and cytokine levels in non‐healing and healing chronic leg ulcers
Abstract
The cause of impaired healing in chronic leg ulcers is not known. However, recent attempts to modify the healing process have focused on adding growth factors to stimulate healing and have failed to produce dramatic improvements in healing. This study used a unique model of chronic wound healing in humans to obtain wound fluid samples from chronic venous leg ulcers that had changed from a nonhealing to a healing phase. These samples were used …
