## Abstract Cultured fibroblasts isolated from normal and keloid tissue do not differ in their growth characteristics or in the rate of collagen synthesis under routine culture conditions. The addition of hydrocortisone to the culture media results in significant differences in both growth and coll
Recent studies have demonstrated that tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) selectively decreases production of collagens I and III, the major types of collagen in the dermis, and increases production of collagenase in cultured dermal fibroblasts. The effects of TNF-alpha on collagens I, III and V
