  2. Wound healing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wound_healing

    Wound healing refers to a living organism's replacement of destroyed or damaged tissue by newly produced tissue. [1] In undamaged skin, the epidermis (surface, epithelial layer) and dermis (deeper, connective layer) form a protective barrier against the external environment. When the barrier is broken, a regulated sequence of biochemical events ...

  3. Heat shock protein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_shock_protein

    Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are a family of proteins produced by cells in response to exposure to stressful conditions. They were first described in relation to heat shock, [ 1 ] but are now known to also be expressed during other stresses including exposure to cold, [ 2 ] UV light [ 3 ] and during wound healing or tissue remodeling. [ 4 ]

  4. Hemostasis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemostasis

    Hemostasis occurs when blood is present outside of the body or blood vessels. It is the innate response for the body to stop bleeding and loss of blood. During hemostasis three steps occur in a rapid sequence. Vascular spasm is the first response as the blood vessels constrict to allow less blood to be lost.

  5. Granulation tissue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granulation_tissue

    The main immune cells active in the tissue are macrophages and neutrophils, although other leukocytes are also present. These work to phagocytize old or damaged tissue, and protect the healing tissue from pathogenic infection. This is necessary both to aid the healing process and to protect against invading pathogens, as the wound often does ...

  6. Skin repair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skin_repair

    Damaged sweat and sebaceous glands, hair follicles, muscle cells, and nerves are seldom repaired. They are usually replaced by the fibrous tissue. The result is the formation of an inflexible, fibrous scar tissue. Human skin cells are capable of repairing UV-induced DNA damages by the process of nucleotide excision repair. [2]

  7. Actin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actin

    Actin is extremely abundant in most cells, comprising 1–5% of the total protein mass of most cells, and 10% of muscle cells. [ 7 ] The actin protein is found in both the cytoplasm and the cell nucleus. [ 9 ] Its location is regulated by cell membrane signal transduction pathways that integrate the stimuli that a cell receives stimulating the ...

  8. Pressure ulcer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_ulcer

    The sore will initially start as a red, painful area. The other process of pressure ulcer development is seen when pressure is high enough to damage the cell membrane of muscle cells. The muscle cells die as a result and skin fed through blood vessels coming through the muscle die.

  9. Electroporation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electroporation

    Irreversible electroporation is being used and evaluated as cardiac ablation therapy to kill very small areas of heart muscle. This is done to treat irregularities of heart rhythm. A cardiac catheter delivers trains of high-voltage ultra-rapid electrical pulses that form irreversible pores in cell membranes, resulting in cell death. It is ...
