Abstract:
Cultured allogenic fibroblasts labeled with fluorescent acridine orange and transplanted onto burn wound virtually completely disappear from the wound surface within 2 days (are destroyed). Study of wound morphology by light autoradiography and quantitative analysis showed a stimulating effect of transplanted fibroblasts on wound healing. This effect, irrespective of the initial state of the wound, is always directed at accelerated formation of connective tissue similar to the derma and capable of epithelialization.

The damage results in the death of skin cells, which can lead to a massive loss of fluid. Dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, and renal and circulatory failure follow, which can be fatal. Burn patients are treated with intravenous fluids to offset...
