Figures & data
Notes: In all examination days, the highest quantity of collagen fibers appeared in the CT-CS-LPs group. X100. Fibers were appeared in the form of organized thick bundles filling the dermis on day 14 in Free CT and CT-CS-LPs groups, while in the Control and CS-LPs groups appeared as fine fibers together with thinly distributed bundles.
Abbreviations: CMT, Crossman’s trichrome; PR (BV), Picrosirius red stain (Bright-field view).
Notes: On all days, the CT-CS-LPs group showed the highest quantity of mature collagen fibers, which by day 14 appeared as thick organized parallel bundles (d3). But in the Free CT group appeared as thick randomly distributed bundles (c3) while appearing as short thin organized bundles in control and CS-LPs groups (a3 and b3). X200.
Notes: VEGF immunoexpression in the granulation tissues; within the inflammatory cells (thin arrows), within the endothelial cells of microvessels (arrow heads), within the fibroblasts (thick arrows), within the epidermis (zigzagged arrows), within the hair follicles (curved arrows), and within the sebaceous gland (*). X400.
