Abstract
Commercially available cultured epithelial keratinocyte sheets (KSs) have played an essential role in wound healing over the last four decades. Despite the initial uptake by the dermal elements, the survival rate of KS on the dermis-like tissue generated by conventional artificial dermis (AD) is low, making this method unsuitable for standard treatments. Therefore, an innovative AD such as collagen/gelatin sponge (CGS) that maintains the release of human recombinant basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) may promote wound healing. In this study, we examined whether combination therapy with KSs and CGS with bFGF (bFGF-CGS) could enhance KS survival by heterologous grafting by transplantation of human-derived KSs in an athymic nude rat wound model of staged skin reconstruction. The CGSs were implanted into skin defect wounds on athymic nude rats, which were then divided into two experimental groups: the bFGF group (CGSs containing bFGF, n = 8) and control group (CGSs with saline, n = 8). Two weeks after implantation, human epithelial cell-derived KSs were grafted onto the dermis-like tissue, followed by assessment of the survival and morphology at one week later using digital imaging, histology (hematoxylin and eosin and Masson's trichrome staining), immunohistology (von Willebrand factor), immunohistochemistry (cytokeratin 1-5-6, Ki-67), and immunofluorescence (collagen IV, pan-cytokeratins) analyses. The bFGF group showed a significantly higher KS survival area (86 ± 58 vs. 32 ± 22 mm2; p < 0.05) and increased epidermal thickness (158 ± 66 vs. 86 ± 40 µm; p < 0.05) compared with the control group, along with higher dermis-like tissue regeneration, neovascularization, epidermal maturation, and basement membrane development. These results indicate that the survival rate of KSs in the dermis-like tissue formed by bFGF-CGS was significantly increased. Therefore, combination treatment of bFGF-CGS and KSs shows potential for full-thickness skin defect reconstruction in clinical situations.

Abstract
In the wound healing process, the morphology of keratinocytes at the wound edge temporarily changes to a spindle morphology, which is thought to occur due to an epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT). Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 2, also called basic FGF, has the potential to accelerate wound closure by activating vascular endothelial cells and fibroblasts. We examined the effects of FGF2 on keratinocyte morphology and EMT in wounded skin. Histological examination of murine wounds treated with FGF2 revealed that wound edge keratinocytes formed thickened and multilayered epithelia. In addition, we detected wound edge keratinocytes migrating individually toward the wound center. These migrating keratinocytes exhibited not only spindle morphology but also down-regulated E-cadherin and up-regulated vimentin expression, which is characteristic of EMT. In FGF2-treated wounds, a PCR array revealed the upregulation of genes related to EMT, including transforming growth factor (TGF) signaling. Further, FGF2-treated wound edge keratinocytes expressed EMT-associated transcription factors, including Snai2, and showed translocation of β-catenin from the cell membrane to the cytoplasm/nucleus. However, in vitro examination of keratinocytes revealed that FGF2 alone did not activate EMT in keratinocytes, but that FGF2 might promote EMT in combination with TGFβ1. These findings suggest that FGF2 treatment of wounds could promote keratinocyte EMT, accelerating wound closure.

Abstract
Topical application of human recombinant basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) promotes wound healing. bFGF, however, has been reported to have little in vitro effects on keratinocyte compared with other cell types such as endothelial cells or fibroblasts. The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism(s) of bFGF-stimulated keratinocyte migration. Normal human keratinocytes, seeded on coverslips that were noncoated or coated with type I collagen or fibronectin, were stimulated with bFGF to evaluate their ability to spread. Keratinocyte migration was measured using a Boyden chamber assay. The lysates of keratinocytes, which were plated on noncoated, type I collagen-coated or fibronectin-coated plastic dishes and stimulated with bFGF, were subjected to pulldown assays to detect guanine triphosphate-loaded Rac. Morphologically, keratinocytes formed lamellipodia only when they were stimulated with bFGF on the collagen-coated coverslips. Keratinocyte migration was significantly enhanced by bFGF. Guanine triphosphate-loaded Rac was detected only in the lysate of bFGF-stimulated keratinocytes on collagen-coated dishes. This in vitro study shows that bFGF exerts a stimulatory effect on keratinocyte migration in the presence of type I collagen as a scaffold, and, at least, Rac activation is involved.

Abstract
Pleural fibrosis resembles fibrosis in other tissues and can be defined as an excessive deposition of matrix components that results in the destruction of normal pleural tissue architecture and compromised function. Pleural fibrosis may be the consequence of an organised haemorrhagic effusion, tuberculous effusion, empyema or asbestos-related pleurisy and can manifest itself as discrete localised lesions (pleural plaques) or diffuse pleural thickening and fibrosis. Although the pathogenesis is unknown, it is likely that the complex interactions between resident and inflammatory cells, profibrotic mediators and coagulation, and fibrinolytic pathways are integral to pleural remodelling and fibrosis. It is generally considered that the primary target cell for pleural fibrosis is the subpleural fibroblast. However, increasing evidence suggests that mesothelial cells may also play a significant role in the pathogenesis of this condition, both by initiating inflammatory responses and producing matrix components. A greater understanding of the interactions between pleural and inflammatory cells, cytokines and growth factors, and blood derived proteins is required before adequate therapies can be developed to prevent pleural fibrosis from occurring.

Abstract
To set the scene for this Directed Issue on Mechanisms of Tissue Repair of The International Journal of Biochemistry and Cell Biology, this introductory overview briefly describes the process of wound healing and highlights some of the key recent advances in this field of research. It emphasizes the importance of cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions, particularly relating to the role of cell surface adhesion molecules, and describes developments that have led to a better understanding of the dynamic nature of matrix turnover with reference to negative and positive mediators that regulate procollagen gene expression and protein production. An important component of this Directed Issue is concerned with the development of tissue fibrosis, which accompanies a number of disease states and demonstrates remarkable parallels with the normal wound healing process; excessive amounts of matrix are laid down but the resolution of scarring, which would be anticipated in wound healing, is impaired. The possible mechanisms involved in fibrosis are discussed here. Since cytokines play an important role in regulating cell function such as proliferation, migration and matrix synthesis, it is the balance of these mediators which is likely to play a key role in regulating the initiation, progression and resolution of wounds. Finally, this review highlights areas of tissue repair research in which recent developments have important clinical implications that may lead to novel therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Wound healing is a complex biologic process that involves the integration of inflammation, mitosis, angiogenesis, synthesis, and remodeling of the extracellular matrix. Part II of this two-part series reviews the results of experiments that indicate that growth factors and their receptors regulate key aspects of soft and hard tissue repair. Results of clinical studies are also reviewed that demonstrate that growth factor treatment accelerates healing of normal tissues and promotes healing of impaired wounds.

Abstract
Acidic fibroblast growth factor (aFGF) is a potent mitogen in vitro for many cells of ectodermal and mesodermal embryonic origin including skin-derived epidermal keratinocytes, dermal fibroblasts and vascular endothelial cells. Based on the mitogenic activity for these skin-derived cells, we tested the ability of topically applied aFGF to promote healing of full-thickness dermal wounds in healthy rodents. Low doses of aFGF can produce almost a two-fold maximum acceleration in the rate of closure of full-thickness dermal punch biopsy wounds in young healthy mice and rats. The mitogen also produces a 3 to 4 day acceleration in the time to complete closure in rats. Quantitative histomorphometric analysis of wound tissue shows that aFGF induces a marked stimulation of angiogenesis, granulation tissue formation and the growth of new epithelium, but does not promote dermal contraction. Application of aFGF to linear incisions in rat skin produces a transient increase in wound tensile strength accompanied by enhanced cellularity and deposition of collagen. Therefore, aFGF functions as a pharmacological agent that can accelerate dermal wound healing in rodents and could act therapeutically to promote dermal tissue repair in humans.

Abstract
The healing of an adult skin lesion is a well studied but complex affair of some considerable clinical interest. Endogenous growth factors, including the EGF, FGF, PDGF and TGF beta families, are released at the wound site and presumed to be a necessary part of the natural wound healing machinery. Moreover, members of each of these families have been shown to enhance healing if added exogenously to a wound site. In this review we shall briefly discuss what is known about the mechanics and cell biology of adult wound healing, describe the normal cellular source of growth factors during the healing process and, with reference to their known capacities in tissue culture, speculate as to how particular growth factors might be able to enhance healing.

Abstract
We have studied the ability of bFGF to traverse and be trapped within basement membranes. An extract of EHS tumor (matrigel) coated on culture chamber filters was used as an in vitro model of basement membranes. Our results showed a slow diffusion of bFGF dependent on the amount of low affinity binding sites present within the matrigel. High amounts of bFGF and heparin increased the initial rate of diffusion by displacement of bFGF bound to matrigel. An in vitro corneal endothelium model (endothelial cells overlying matrigel) was also developed. This monolayer, with a weak permeability, decreased the kinetic rate of bFGF diffusion compared with matrigel alone. These results indicate that modulation of bFGF distribution in a tissue by a basement membrane is dependent on bFGF concentration, basement membrane composition, permeability of associated cells, and local presence of heparin. This selective control may be a regulating step in bFGF action.

Abstract
Conditioned media collected from arterial endothelial cells contain protein factor(s) that promotes the contraction of collagen lattices made with skin fibroblasts. Based on the lattice contraction-promoting activity, a protein with an apparent molecular weight of 22 kDa was identified. This 22-kDa protein stimulated lattice contraction in both serum-containing and serum-free media. When assayed at a 30% equivalent of the conditioned medium, the contraction-promoting activity of the purified factor was about 50 to 60% of that elicited by the unfractionated conditioned medium. Some contraction-promoting activity was also present in certain subfractions of the conditioned medium generated during the separation of the 22-kDa protein. Taken together, the results indicate that the lattice contraction-promoting activity in the endothelial cell-conditioned medium is probably aided by multiple active principles. The biochemical and biological characteristics indicated that the 22-kDa protein is not a transforming growth factor-beta-related factor nor a fibroblast growth promoter.

Abstract
The synovium from patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and LEW/N rats with streptococcal cell wall (SCW) arthritis, an experimental model resembling RA, is characterized by massive proliferation of synovial connective tissues and invasive destruction of periarticular bone and cartilage. Since heparin binding growth factor (HBGF)-1, the precursor of acidic fibroblast growth factor (FGF), is a potent angiogenic polypeptide and mitogen for mesenchymal cells, we sought evidence that it was involved in the synovial pathology of RA and SCW arthritis. HBGF-1 mRNA was detected in RA synovium using the polymerase chain reaction technique, and its product was immunolocalized intracellularly in both RA and osteoarthritis (OA) synovium. HBGF-1 staining was more extensive and intense in synovium of RA patients than OA and correlated with the extent and intensity of synovial mononuclear cell infiltration. HBGF-1 staining also correlated with c-Fos protein staining. In SCW arthritis, HBGF-1 immunostaining was noted in bone marrow, bone, cartilage, synovium, ligamentous and tendinous structures, as well as various dermal structures and developed early in both T-cell competent and incompetent rats. Persistent high level immunostaining of HBGF-1 was only noted in T-cell competent rats like the disease process in general. These observations implicate HBGF-1 in a multitude of biological functions in inflammatory joint diseases.

Abstract
The bioactivity of both bFGF and aFGF in the BALB/MK-1 cell line has been compared to that of EGF. Our results indicate that, for that cell type, aFGF was far more potent than bFGF in inducing cell proliferation. In the presence of heparin, aFGF was as potent as EGF. In addition, excess bFGF has an inhibitory effect on the proliferation of MK cells exposed to a saturating concentration of aFGF, therefore acting as a partial agonist of aFGF. Surprisingly, bFGF, although it had low biological activity, was capable of synergizing the effect of EGF. In its presence, cultures exposed to saturating concentration of EGF have a final cell density 3- to 4-fold higher than that of counterpart cultures exposed to EGF alone. TGF beta, which in previous studies has been shown to inhibit the growth of keratinocytes, also inhibited the growth of BALB/MK-1 cells in response to either bFGF or aFGF. These studies suggest a role for FGF in regulating BALB/MK proliferation. aFGF provides positive growth signals which can be negatively modulated by excess bFGF or TGF beta, while bFGF, although a poor mitogen, could act by potentiating the effect of subsaturating concentrations of EGF.

Abstract
Evidence from in vitro studies supports the concept that growth factors could be involved in the development and function of the vascular tree. Among the growth factors known to influence vascular endothelial cells' proliferation and differentiation, in vitro, are the fibroblast growth factors. These consist of two closely, structurally, related polypeptides that differ by their isoelectric point and have been called basic and acidic fibroblast growth factor. These growth factors, in particular basic fibroblast growth factor, which is expressed and synthesized by vascular endothelial cells, could influence the development, remodeling, and function of the vascular tree through regulating mechanisms involving paracrine and autocrine control of cell proliferation and differentiation.

Abstract
Polycationic molecules were studied either for their ability to displace the binding of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) to high- and low-affinity membrane interaction sites and/or to modulate bFGF-induced proliferation of fibroblasts. Heparin-binding polypeptides, such as polylysine, protamine, histones, and thrombin-displaced [125I]bFGF bound to bovine brain membrane receptors. The most displacing polypeptides were those with the strongest affinity to heparin. Two of these polypeptides, protamine and polylysine, inhibited (at 5 microM) by more than 90% the mitogenic effect induced by bFGF on Chinese hamster lung fibroblast cells (CCL39). At the same dose, no effect was observed with basic proteins that do not bind to heparin, such as cytochrome C and lysozyme. An interesting observation was that protamine at 1 microM potentiated by 1.5-fold the mitogenic activity of bFGF, while it acted as an inhibitor at higher concentration.

Abstract
This article summarizes the structural and biological properties of the family of fibroblast growth factors (FGF). Basic FGF (bFGF) and acidic FGF (aFGF) are the best characterized members of this family. bFGF and aFGF are potent modulators of cell proliferation, motility and differentiation. They are also potent angiogenesis factors in vivo. Some of the important biological characteristics of bFGF and aFGF discussed in the review include the affinity of bFGF and aFGF for heparin, their lack of secretion in culture and their association with extracellular matrix. Recently, several oncogenes, 40-50% homologous in sequence to bFGF and aFGF have been identified. These include int-2, hst, K-fgf and FGF-5. The structural and biological properties of these FGF-related oncogenes are also discussed.

Abstract
An understanding of the basic science of cutaneous wound repair is essential to the dermatologic surgeon for the management of the postoperative wound. This review discusses the stages of wound healing and then applies these principles to the preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative management of the surgical patient.

Abstract
Collagen-based materials can be formed into a three-dimensional sponge for use as a wound dressing and as a support for cell cultured skin components. Factors such as biocompatibility, morphological structure and addition of non-collagenous molecules to collagen are analyzed and discussed. Large pores or channels, interchannel communications and combinations of macromolecules of the connective tissue enhance wound tissue infiltration in vivo as well as cell growth in vitro into collagen sponges. The presence of such factors can be useful in patients with excised burn wounds and pressure skin ulcers.

Abstract
The rate of collagen deposition in implanted polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) tubing in non-diabetic and streptozotocin-induced (STZ) diabetic mice was measured during 14 days post-wounding. At the time of implantation, test groups received injections of either Quadrol [N,N,N',N'-tetrakis(2-hydroxypropyl)ethylenediamine], glucan, or buffer in an area adjacent to the wound site. The accumulation of collagen in the implants of Quadrol-treated non-diabetic animals was more than 200% above control on days 8 to 11 and was 50% above control on day 14. In Quadrol-treated STZ-diabetic mice, the collagen accumulation gradually increased from 50% above control on day 8 to 200% above control on day 14. Treatment with glucan increased the collagen accumulation in normal mice 200 to 300% above control from days 8 to 11 respectively and then 30% above control on day 14. Collagen accumulation in the implants of the glucan-treated STZ-diabetic mice was similar to the control group. These results indicate that Quadrol promotes in vivo collagen synthesis and that Quadrol may be effective as a stimulator of wound healing in diabetic and non-diabetic animals.

Abstract
Corneal wound healing and the many factors which may promote or prevent it are of concern to both clinicians and researchers. Ophthalmologists are often confronted with corneal dystrophies and problematic injuries resulting in persistent and recurrent epithelial erosion and with permanent endothelial loss. Scientists have long noted that corneal epithelial and endothelial cell layers are among the most simple and accessible for experimental manipulation and non-invasive study in both animal and human models. Healing epithelium provides a classical model of cell locomotion over a surface, while endothelial cell viability and function is of fundamental importance to maintenance of corneal clarity and vision during the aging process as well as after disease, surgery, or laser treatment. Growth factors can now be produced homogeneously by genetic engineering, increasing the potential of commercial development for purposes such as corneal wound healing. This article reviews some known properties of growth factors whose effects have been at least partially characterized in corneal tissues.
