  • Title: Growth factors in wound healing.
    Author: Hom DB.
    Journal: Otolaryngol Clin North Am; 1995 Oct; 28(5):933-53. PubMed ID: 8559581.
    Abstract:
    Growth factors are signal proteins that regulate the cellular processes in wound healing. By manipulating the actions of growth factors, it may be possible to accelerate or modify wound healing. Currently, intense research is being conducted throughout the world to investigate this possibility. In otolaryngology, the impact of improved wound healing could be tremendous. This article discusses the involvement of growth factors in soft-tissue healing that is relevant to otolaryngology.
