August 2021 in “International Journal of Molecular Sciences” This review discusses the role of fascial mobilization in wound healing and its potential implications for treating chronic skin wounds and scarring, but reports no new clinical results.
January 2021 in “Electronic Theses of LMU Munich (Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München)” This study found that fibroblasts play a crucial role in scar formation during dermal development and identified N-Cadherin as a key molecule in their response, suggesting new therapeutic avenues for scar prevention.
This source reviews current understanding of fibroblast lineage differentiation and its role in wound healing, highlighting the potential to reprogram adult cells for scar-free repair by emulating fetal-like regenerative states.
January 2026 in “Preprints.org” This review explores current knowledge on fibroblast lineage specification and its impact on scar-free wound healing, noting that early fetal skin fibroblasts support regeneration, while later developmental shifts lead to fibrosis, highlighting potential strategies to reprogram adult fibroblasts for regenerative repair.
