Though it has been claimed that mitotic activity is stimulated after injury (Jus6lius, '10; Arey, '36; Arey and Covode, '43) it is now generally assumed that the covering of small epithelial defects takes place by "migration" of the neighbouring cells into the defect, and not by mitosis. Much of the

## Abstract Mechanisms that specifically modulate cell spreading and/or cell migration following epithelial wounding are poorly understood. Using microโwounded human gastric epithelial monolayers, we show herein that EGF and TGFฮฑ maximally increase spreading of epithelial sheets under a cell prolif
## Abstract ## Background In vitro models of โwound healingโ rely on analysis of confluent cell cultures that are mechanically wounded, e.g., by scratching the cell monolayer. Damage and removal of cells during wounding provides mitogenic signals to the adjacent cells and induces their migration t
This paper considers the comparison of experimental spatial and temporal data of mitotic rates measured during corneal epithelial wound healing (CEWH) of a rat model with the predictions of a computer modelling framework. We begin by briefly showing that previous models, used in the study of corneal
## Abstract Bone marrow has long been known to be a source of stem cells capable of regeneration of the hematopoeitic system. Recent reports, however, have indicated that bone marrow might also contain early stem cells that can differentiate into other organ tissues such as skin. While these studie
