Figure 2. Schematic representation of timing of infiltration of inflammatory cells relative to secondary pathogenesis and wound healing.

Figure 2

Inflammatory cells participate in both early tissue injury and in wound healing events. This summarizes data from several studies that have addressed the timing of infiltration relative to early injury and wound healing events. Peak periods of infiltration coincide with barrier disruption (91, 92), angiogenesis (93–95), and glial scar formation (11). Note that the magnitude of infiltration is expressed as arbitrary units for each of the cell types, and as such comparisons cannot be made between groups.
