상처치유과정중 관상어류 피부 색소체계의 재분화경로를 규명하기 위하여 외부 색채가 화려한 담수산 금붕어 (Carassius auratus L.)를 실험재료로 하여 피부의 일정부위에 인위적인 상처를 유도한 후, 시간 경과에 따른 조직과 색소 체계의 치유과정을 고배율의 투과 전자현미경으로 관찰하였다. 금붕어 피부 색소세포는 정상조직에서 황색소세포, 백색소세포 그리고 혹색소세포 등 세 종류의 진피성 색소세포로 이루어져 있었다. 황색소세포에는 pterinosome과 carotenoid vesicle 등 두 종류의 색소과립이 분포되어 있었고, 백색소세포와 혹색소세포에는 무정형 색소결정인 leucosome과 전자밀도가 높은 구형의 색소과립인 melamosome이 각각 함유되어 있었다. 초기 상처치유반응은 상처 유도직 후에 표면 손상부위로 전이되는 상피세포와 혈구세포에 의하여 수행되었다. 상처 유도후 $5\sim7$일이 경과된 조직의 표본에서는 조면소포체가 특이하게 발달되어 진피성 색소세포의 공통 원기로 추정되는 세포의 출현이 확인되었다. 또한 재생된 조직내에서 재분화된 색소세포는 상처유도 후 3주가 경과된 표본에서 처음 관찰되었다. 색소과립의 재분화 경로는 세포 내에서의 색소과립 형성 과정과 마찬가지로 색소세포내에 잘 발달된 조면소포체와 골지체를 경유한 후, 분비소포의 형태로 생성림이 확인되었다. 그리고 재분화된 색소세포로 유입되는 색소 원기물질은 음세포과립을 통하여 수송되었는데, 특히 조면소포체가 풍부한 원기세포와 연접된 색소세포의 원형질막에서 매우 활발한 물질의 수송이 관찰되었다. 한편, 각 색소세포의 일차적인 재분화과정은 상처 유도후 4주가 경과되어 피부 상처가 치유되는 시점을 전후하여 완료되었으나, 재분화된 색소세포의 수나 분포밀도는 충분한 체색발현을 위한 상태에 비해 크게 미달되는 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 특별한 환경의 변화가 없는 한, 상처유도 이전의 색소체계와 동일한 상태로의 복구에는 적어도 3개월 이상이 소요되는 것으로 확인되었다.

Purpose: To observe the histopathological changes following irradiation on the wound healing after tooth extraction in the rachitic rats. Materials and Methods: In order to carry out this study, the rats were divided into four groups: Group 1 (normal diet/non-irradiation group), Group 2 (normal diet/irradiation group), Group 3 (rachitogenic diet/non-irradiation group), and Group 4 (rachitogenic diet/irradiation group). Rachitic changes were induced with rachitogenic diet No. 2 (high calcium, low phosphorus, and Vitamin D deficient diet) for 5 weeks. After the extraction of both maxillary first molars of the rats in Group 2 and 4, the head and neck of the rats were irradiated with single absorbed dose of 10 Gy. The rats were sacrificed at the 1st, 5th, 10th, and 15th day after tooth extraction. The specimens including the extraction wound were sectioned, stained with the hematoxylin-eosin and Masson's trichrome method and examined under the light microscope. Results: In the Group 2, the amount of newly formed bone trabeculae on the periphery of extraction socket and osteoblastic activity were reduced. In the Group 3, epithelial fusion was not revealed on the 5th day after toothe extraction and growth rate of osteoid formation was reduced. In the Group 4, necrotized tissue at the outer surface of extraction socket and destructive changes on the alveolar bones were noted on the 10th day. Epithelial fusion was not revealed and large amounts of osteoclast were noted on alveolar bone on the 15th day. Conclusion: The healing process of wound after tooth extraction was retarded by irradiation and especially in the rachitic rats.

There have been many trials to decrease the scar formation followed by wound treatment. $TGF-{\beta}$ plays a important role on wound healing in adult. Therefore the repression of $TGF-{\beta}$ expression will be helpful to decrease scar formation. Decorin is known to competitively inhibit $TGF-{\beta}$ expression. Decorin were subcutaneously administered in surgical wounds in rabbits to investigate the preventing effect of scar formation for clinical application. Histologic findings of wound healing progresses is similar with control and experimental group at 2week. $2.5{\mu}g$ decorin of administrated group was similar to those of control group at 4 and 8week. In wound healing process $10{\mu}g$ decorin of administrated groupsat showed that thickness of immature collagen fibers(scar) was decreased as compared with control group at 4, 8 weeks. $20{\mu}g$ decorin of administrated group showed similar histologic features to $10{\mu}g$ administrated group. The wounds of 8week experimental group(10, $20{\mu}g$) were completely recovered to the normal surrounding skin tissue including sweat gland and hair follicle. These results suggested that decorin can be of help to the prevention of local scar formation.

Purpose: The inflammatory phase is considered an integral part of adult wound healing, but fetal wound healing studies have shown scarless healing results in the absence of the inflammation process. The COX-2 pathway is an essential component of inflammation. The purpose of this study is to identify the effect of a topical selective COX-2 inhibitor on inflammation in rabbit skin wound healing and scarring. Methods: Full-thickness wounds were made on 6 New Zealand rabbits' ears. Topical 5% celecoxib + vehicle (experimental tissue) and vehicle only (controlled tissue) were applied daily for 14d on each side of the ears. Scar samples were harvested at 2 wks, 4 wks, and 8 wks after the wounding. Each sample was stained with hematoxylin and eosin and the Masson's trichrome stain to evaluate inflammation and scar formation. Results: Histological analysis demonstrated a significant reduction of inflammation, neovascularization, and scar elevation in the experimental tissue as compared to the control. Additionally, experimental tissue exhibited faster improvement of collagen organization similar to that of normal tissue. Conclusion: This study suggests that the topical application of a selective COX-2 inhibitor on a rabbit ear wound resulted in decreased inflammation and had a positive effect on the reduction of scar formation.

Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is an inherited disorder of collagen biosynthesis and structure, characterized by skin hyperextensibility, joint hypermobility, aberrant scars, and tissue friability. Besides the skin, skeleton (joint) and vessels, other organs such as the eyes and the intestine can be affected in this syndrome. Accordingly, interdisciplinary cooperation is necessary for a successful treatment. Three basic surgical problems are arising due to an EDS: decreased the strength of the tissue causes making the wound dehiscence, increased bleeding tendency due to the blood vessel fragility, and delayed wound healing period. Surgery patients with an EDS require an experienced surgeon in treating EDS patients; the treatment process requires careful tissue handling and a long postoperative care. A surgeon should also recognize whether the patient shows a resistance to local anesthetics and a high risk of hematoma formation. This report describes a patient with a wide open wound on the foot dorsum and delayed wound healing after the primary approximation of the wound margins.

상처치유는 growth factor와 cytokine들의 복합적인 작용에 의해 일어나는 과정이다. GM-CSF는 호중구와 대식세포를 분화시키고 각질세포를 증식시키는 다면발현성 사이토카인으로 여러 세포에서 재조합되어 사용되고 있다. (주)핸슨바이오텍에서 개발한 rice cell 유래의 재조합 rrhGM-CSF는 다른 세포에서 유래된 GM-CSF들보다 탄수화물 측쇄가 많은 것이 특징이다. rrhGM-CSF의 창상치유효과를 알아보기 위하여 햄스터에 만성 당뇨를 유도하여 상처치유가 어려운 동물모델을 만든 후, 등쪽에 인위적으로 피부 전 층을 제거하여 창상을 유발하였다. 실험군에는 rrhGM-CSF가 포함된 연고를 적용하고, 대조군에는 base cream만을 적용하여 재상피화되는 과정과 피부조직의 구조 및 PCNA 반응을 통한 세포증식 정도를 비교하였다. 육안 및 조직학적 관찰 결과, rrhGM-CSF를 적용한 그룹의 재상피화 속도가 더 빨랐으며, PCNA 면역조직화학적 조사에서도 증식하는 각질세포의 수가 대조군보다 상대적으로 많은 것으로 나타남으로써, rrhGM-CSF에 의한 피부상처 치유 효과를 관찰할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과들로 미루어 보아 벼세포 유래의 rrhGM-CSF는 국소적인 피부 창상 치유에 효과적인 것으로 보이며, rrhGM-CSF의 풍부한 당화 사슬은 이 단백질이 상처부위에 안정된 상태로 기능을 나타냄으로써 효과를 오랫동안 지속시킬 수 있었던 것으로 사료된다.

The author used rabbits in order to examine the effect of Ga-As low power generating semiconductor laser on artificially produced injuries of experimental animals. Artificially produced injuries include surgical wound of 3mm length, 2mm depth in size on ventral skin surface of rabbit and buccal mucosa, and electrical injury formed on opposite side of skin and buccal mucosa by electrical cauterization of same length and depth, and chemical injury formed by FC(Formocresol) solution applied on the anterior dorsal part of tongue. And then, on the experimental group, Ga-As laser was irradiated beginning on the day after the wound formation and continued to irradiate every each other day for five minutes. After1, 3, 6, 9, 13th day, certain number of animals of control and experimental group were sacrified, and wound site tissue was excised to make samples and was observed under light microscope. The following is the conclusions after comparing the healing procedure of experimental and control group. The following results were obtained : 1. Inflammation was decreased more rapidly in the experimental group than the control group. 2. In the surgical, the electrical and the chemical injuries in the oral mucosa, re-epithelialization was completed more rapidly in the experimental group than the control group. In the electrical injury on the skin, re-epithelialization was completed about 6 days after wound formation on both groups. 3. In the electrical and the surgical injuries on the oral mucosa, granulation tissue formation started at 3 days after injury on both groups, but in the chemical injury, it was completed about 3 days faster in the control group than the experimental group. In the surgical wound on the skin, it was completed about 9 days after injury, but faster in the experimental group. In the electrical injury on the skin, it was faster in the control group than the experimental group. 4. In the electrical and the surgical injuries on the oral mucosa, fibrosis was started at 6~9 days after injury on both groups, but regeneration of connective tissue in the experimental group was observed much more than the control group. 5. When comparing the effect of wound healing on skin and oral mucosa of control and experimental group, granulation tissue formation and re-epithelialization in the oral mucosa was more vigorous. In conclusion, the difference of timing and the sequence of wound healing process(inflammation, re-epithelialization, granulation tissue formation, fibrosis) following Laser irradiation between control and experimental group was not observed, but the healing tissue was observed much more in the Laser irradiated group.

In most of the previous studies, invasive and discrete techniques have been used to monitor the healing process of the gingival graft. However, Laser Doppler Flowmetry(LDF, floLAB(R), Moor Instruments Ltd., England) is a non-invasive technique for measurement of blood flow in the tissue and also allows continuous monitoring. Thus, we tested the usefulness of LDF in monitoring the healing process of free gingival graft at gingival recession. Eleven gingival graft site of 7 patients, including 5 males and 2 females, aged between 21 and 41 years (mean age 28.5) were monitored for the blood flow. The blood flow in gingival graft at coronal site, central site, apical site, mesial site and distal site was measured using LDF. Blood flow was measured at 1- week, 2- week, 3- week and 4- week after gingival graft surgery from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Time-course of the healing process was evaluated by statistical analysis using repeated ANOVA and Duncan test. The results were as follows : (1) Blood flow stayed increased for 2 weeks, and then, it was a tendency to decrease. (2) The blood flow at distal site had always higher than mesial site during the measuring periods. (3) The blood flow was high orderly after 1 week ; most coronal site, most apical site, central site. But that was high orderly after 2 week, 3 week, 4 week ; most coronal site, central site, most apical site. In conclusion, LDF was a useful and clinically adaptable method to monitor wound healing process. Our study suggested that it was important to protect surgical site to promote initial wound healing.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of Cyclophosphamide on the healing process of fractures of the mice. Tweny-one young adult male mice were used. All of them were experimentally fractured in the left mandibular body areas, and Cyclophosphamide 0.1mg. per 30gr. body wt. was administrated intramuscularly to the experimental group. the mice of both control and experimental groups were sacrificed 1,3,5,7,10,14, and 21st day after operations and microscopic slides were made. The author has observed the histopathological findings. The results were as follows; 1. There were no specific difference between the experimental and control group in the early stage (1~5th day after operation) of the healing process of the mandibular fracture. 2. In the healing process of fractures 7-10th day after operation, the fibrous tissure formation and osteoblastic activity were poor in the experimental groop compared with the control group. 3. In the healing process of fractures 14-21th day after operation, the connective tissue and new bone formation were very poor in the experimental group compared with the control group. 4. On the whole, cyclophosphamide affected the experimentally fractured wound to delay healing in the jaw bone of the mice.
