A critical factor for wound healing

Using mouse skin as a model system, J. Scott Beeler, Jennifer Pietenpol, PhD, and colleagues found that p73 is required for the timely healing of cutaneous wounds. In normal tissue, p73 expression increased in response to wounding, whereas p73 deficiency resulted in delayed wound healing, they reported in the journal PLOS ONE.
