Tissue Repair

Tissue repair occurs through two primary mechanisms: first intention and second intention healing. First intention healing is characterized by the close approximation of wound edges, minimal granulation tissue, and a swift recovery process.

Tissue Repair

Morphology of Granulation tissue

2 patterns
Late form

Fibrous granulation tissue

Inconspicuous capillaries and numerous plump activated fibroblasts

Early form

Vascular granulation tissue

Loose connective tissue matrix

Proliferating fibroblasts

Leukocytes

Occupied by
Macrophages and lymphocytes

Resolving inflammation

Proliferating capillaries and fibroblast

Wound Healing

Former site of tissue damage and active inflammation

2nd intention

Differences compared to 1st Intention healing
Parenchymal regen cannot fully reconstitute original architecture
wound contraction present

Fibroblast with smooth muscle characteristics

mediated by myofibroblast

Much larger amounts of grnulation tissue formed
More intense inflammatory rxn
Occurs in wounds with separated edges

First intention

1st Month
Tensile strength increases gradually thereafter
Dermal appendages destroyed by injury are permanently lost
Scar comprises of connective tissue covered by intact epidermis
Week 2
Leukocyte infiltration, Edema and increased vascularity disappeared
Continued proliferation of fibroblast and accumulation of fibrogen
Day 5
Epidermis recovers normal thickeness
Collagen bridges incision
Incisional space filled with granulation tissue
Day 3
Epithelial proliferation continues
Collagen fibers present at margin but do not bridge incision
Granulation tissue invades incisional space
Replacement of neutrophils by macrophages
24-48Hrs
Continuous thin epithelial layer formed
Fusing in midline beneath surface scab
Spurs of epithelial cells migrate and grow along margins
Epidermis at cut edge thickens due to mitotic activity of basal cells
Immediate response to injury
Acute inflamation occurs with appearance of neutrophils at edge of wound
Dehydration of clot form scab
Wound fills with clotted blood
Healing of clean wounds with opposed edges

2 Distinct Processes

Fibrosis
Non-dividing cells hence must heal by fibrosis instead

Skeletal muscle

Cardiac muscle

Neurons

Scar formation
Replacement of injured cells by connective tissue

4) Remodelling of Fibrous Tissue

Vascular regression continues as scar matures

Conversion of granulation tissue into scar

Dense collagen

Spindle shaped fibroblasrt

3) Deposition of ECM

Fibroblast proliferation decreases over time while ECM deposition increases

major portion of connective tissue formed by fibrillar collagens

2) Migration + Proliferation of Fibroblasts

Formation of granulation tissue framework

Proliferation triggered by GFs and Cytokines

1) Angiogenesis

d) Recruitment of periendothelial cells

Smooth muscle cells

Pericytes

c) Maturation of Cells

Inhibition and remodeling into capillary tubes

b) Migration and proliferation of Endothelial Cells

To angiogenic stimulus

a) Proteolytic Degradation

BM of parent vessel

Regeneration
Restitution of normal structure

Needs intact basement Membrane

Cells proliferate haphazrdly if BM disrupted

Needed for organized regeneration

Underlying supporting stroma of parenchymal cells

Replacement of injured cells by cells of same type

Stable Cells

Quiescent cells

E.g.

Parenchymal cells of glandular organs

Vascular endothelial cells

Mesenchymal cells

Considered to be G0 but can be stimulated into G1

Capable of rebuilding tissue of origin

Rapid division in response to stimuli

Normally low level or replication

Labile Cells

Stratified sq. cells of skin, columnar epithelium of GI tract

Regen. derived mostly from stem cells with unlimited regen capacity

Continuously dividing cells

Proliferate to replace cells
