BACKGROUND
Physiologically programmed cell death or apoptosis occurs during the natural balance between cellular proliferation and demise.
METHODS
We compared the expression of 64 apoptosis-related genes in keloids and normal scars to investigate the potential role of apoptosis in keloid formation.
Hypertrophic scars and keloid are dermal proliferative disorders in wound healing. Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) has been implicated in scar formation through the activation of fibroblasts and the acceleration of collagen deposition. Our study aimed to design a novel truncated (27-123
