Cultured dermal fibroblasts become notably elongated when incorporated into a fibroblast-populated collagen lattice (FPCL). With time these fibroblasts reorganize the collagen responsible for reduction in lattice size. In monolayer the microinjection of Lucifer Yellow (LY) into cultured human fibrob

## Abstract Fibroblasts can condense a hydrated collagen lattice to a tissueβlike structure. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of substrate adhesion on the contraction and mechanical properties of fibroblast populated collagen lattices. Bacteriological grade polystyrene (BGPS) pl
Background and Objective: Hypertrophic scarring and rigid scar contracture are disorders of wound healing for which there is presently no effective therapy. The dermal fibroblast plays a major role in scar fibrillogenesis and contracture. The objective of this study was to establish a selective and
