Wound healing is a complex biologic event. Numerous growth factors are involved in the regulation of tissue repair and remodelling processes. In this study, several techniques were used to observe the effects of recombinant human epidermal growth factors (rh-EGF) on porcine partial-thickness burn wound healing. Healing rates of the burn wounds were quantitated by computer image analysis of the wound Pkotographs. Biopsies were taken for examining the cell DNA cycle by flow cytometry, and for observing the keratinocyte migration and degree of reepithelialization quantitated by anti-keratin antibodies. The results indicated that daily topical application of rh-EGF in suitable concentrations accelerated epithelial healing of partial-thickness burn wounds, and there was also a dose-dependent effect of rh-EGF on healing rates of the partial-thickness burn wounds.
