Recent results call for the reexamination of the phenotype of wound macrophages and their
role in tissue repair. These results include the characterization of distinct circulating …

Macrophages are critically involved in wound healing, from dampening inflammation to
clearing cell debris and coordinating tissue repair. Within the wound, the complexity of …

Macrophages are prominent cells in normally healing adult skin wounds, yet their exact
functions and functional significance to healing outcomes remain enigmatic. Many functional …

Macrophages are mononuclear phagocytes established during embryogenesis and derived
from the yolk sac or the fetal liver but also recruited from the blood and bone marrow under …

Macrophages are present in all tissues, either as resident cells or monocyte-derived cells
that infiltrate into tissues. The tissue site largely determines the phenotype of tissue-resident …

The macrophage is a prominent inflammatory cell in wounds, but its role in healing remains
incompletely understood. Macrophages have many functions in wounds, including host …

Macrophages are essential for the efficient healing of numerous tissues, and they contribute
to impaired healing and fibrosis. Tissue repair proceeds through overlapping phases of …
