“…Previous reports have shown that IL-10 suppresses wound healing, whereas TGF-b and TNF-a are necessary for wound healing [17][18][19]. IL-10 inhibits the synthesis of a number of cytokines including IFN-g, IL-2, TNF-a, and granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) produced by activated macrophages and T lymphocytes.…”

“…There have been several studies indicating an increase in collagen production during the repair process by applying exogenous TGF‐β (Mustoe et al, 1987; Beck et al, 1990; Jones et al, 1991; Quaglino et al, 1991; Terrell et al, 1993). However, no experimental findings are available regarding activation of the collagen gene promoter in wound healing.…”

“…It is secreted from macrophages and lymphocytes (Kehrl et al, 1986; Assoian et al, 1987) and increases the production of collagen and fibronectin by fibroblasts in vitro (Raghow et al, 1987; Varga et al, 1987). Exogenous addition of TGF‐β has been reported to stimulate wound healing (Mustoe et al, 1987; Beck et al, 1990; Jones et al, 1991; Quaglino et al, 1991; Terrell et al, 1993). TGF‐β is also known to have indirect mitogenic activity on fibroblasts.…”

“…The dosing regimen of TGF-ßl used to induce scar formation in day 14 fetal mouse limbs in the present study was chosen on the basis of clinical studies that showed fibrosis after daily administration ofa similar dose of TGF-ßl applied topically to adult wounds . 24,26 This dose is admittedly pharmacologic . In preliminary studies, it was determined that TGF-ßl was only effective when prepared in polypropylene vials immediately before application and applied directly to the wounded limb .…”
