Wound dressings are traditionally used to protect a wound and to facilitate healing.
Currently, their function is expanding. There is an urgent need for new smart products that …

Transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) signalling is essential for wound healing, including
both non-specific scar formation and tissue-specific regeneration. Specific TGFβ isoforms …

Excessive extracellular matrix deposition drives fibroblasts into a state of high mechanical
stress, exacerbating pathological fibrosis and hypertrophic scar formation, leading to tissue …

Repair in composite materials is tending towards autonomic healing systems. This is a
technological departure from the mechanical repair currently practiced in industry. For …

The mechanical characteristics of skin are extremely complex and have not been
satisfactorily simulated by conventional engineering models. The ability to predict human …

Tendon injury is one of the most common causes of wastage in the performance horse; the
majority of tendon injuries occur to the superficial digital flexor tendon (SDFT) whereas few …

Electrospinning is a promising method for the rapid and cost-effective production of
nanofibers from a wide variety of polymers given the high surface area morphology of these …

Significance: Skin exhibits direction-dependent biomechanical behavior, influenced by the
structural orientation of its collagen-rich fibrous network and its viscous ground-substance …

Wounds in the fetus can heal without scarring. Consequently, biomaterials that attempt to
recapitulate the biophysical and biochemical properties of fetal skin have emerged as …

Background Adipose‐derived stem cells (ASC s) have positive effects in the wound healing
process. Objective To clarify whether ASC s positively mitigate scar formation in the wound …
