OKLAHOMA CITY — When a fresh wound occurs, cells rush to produce collagen, which aids healing. But sometimes this process goes awry, resulting in one of two extremes: insufficient healing or excessive scar tissue.

Thanks to a recent discovery at the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation, researchers now have a better grasp on the cause.

“It’s a delicate balance,” said OMRF scientist Lorin Olson, Ph.D., who led the study published this month in the journal Cell Reports.

“Everything must work just right for proper wound healing to take place.”
