Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
A wound determines a cascade of chemical and morphological events aimed at hemostasis, prevention or arrest of infection, removal of damaged tissue, and finally tissue repair. The disturbance or an alteration of these events creates the conditions for the formation of a chronic wound or of keloids or hypertrophic scars that are not easily resolved by therapy. Obviously, a thorough knowledge of the cells and molecules involved in the tissue response to trauma is important to actively control the response to surgical operations and therapies used that are currently assuming ever greater importance in the control of wounds. Therefore, the aim of this Special Issue is to stimulate research and clinical interest in this exciting field and to serve as a point of reference for those involved in addressing the problems posed by wounds and their healing.
