Abstract

In this study we have investigated epidermal growth and differentiation during wound healing in human skin. The studies were performed in excisional wounds in normal skin and in chronic venous ulcers. Tissues were analyzed by immunohistochemical staining for proliferation-associated nuclear antigens (PCNA and Ki-67 antigen) and cytokeratin 16. Healing of excisional wounds was studied from day 2 to 14. Recruitment of resting (G0) epidermal cells started within 2 days after wounding
