Delayed wound healing in mice associated with viral alteration of macrophages.
MouseWoundMaleInstilled into full-thickness incised wounds (zymosan and glucan)
Model: Full-thickness incisional skin wounds in mice acutely or chronically infected with Sendai virus, murine hepatitis virus or murine herpes simplex virus type 1
Mice acutely and chronically infected with Sendai virus had impaired healing of incisional wounds, which was overcome by instilling zymosan and glucan into the wounds, whereas levamisole had no effect on breaking strength. Murine hepatitis virus also reduced wound tensile strength, while murine her…
