Obesity impairs wound closure through a vasculogenic mechanism
Since obesity impairs wound healing and bone marrow (BM)‐derived vasculogenic progenitor cells (PCs) are important for tissue repair, we hypothesize that obesity‐impaired wound healing is due, in part, to impaired PC mobilization, trafficking, and function. Peripheral blood was obtained from nondiab...

Zusammenfassung: | Since obesity impairs wound healing and bone marrow (BM)‐derived vasculogenic progenitor cells (PCs) are important for tissue repair, we hypothesize that obesity‐impaired wound healing is due, in part, to impaired PC mobilization, trafficking, and function. Peripheral blood was obtained from nondiabetic, obese (BMI > 30, n = 25), and nonobese (BMI |
