摘要
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression of mRNA for TGF-beta, MMP-1 and TIMP-1 and their effects on the formation of hypertrophic scar (HTS). METHODS: In situ hybridization and image analysis were used in this study. RESULTS: The expressions of mRNA for TGF-beta and TIMP-1 in HTS was greatly increased compared with those of normal skin. The average integral optical density of mRNA for TGF-beta and TIMP-1 increased by 8 and 7 folds (P < 0.001) related to normal skin and the expression of them showed highly positive correlation. CONCLUSIONS: The findings suggest that TGF-beta promotes the expression of TIMP-1 and may be a possible factor for hypertrophic scar formation.
