Difference between Healing and Wound healing

Healing vs. Wound healing

Healing (literally meaning to make whole) is the process of the restoration of health from an unbalanced, diseased or damaged organism. Wound healing is an intricate process in which the skin repairs itself after injury.

Similarities between Healing and Wound healing

Healing and Wound healing have 22 things in common (in Unionpedia): Actin, Apoptosis, Basement membrane, Capillary, Cell (biology), Collagen, Eicosanoid, Epithelium, Extracellular matrix, Fibroblast, Granulation tissue, Injury, Ischemia, Macrophage, Necrosis, Oxygen, Phagocytosis, Scar, Smooth muscle tissue, Thrombus, Tissue (biology), Wound healing.

Actin

Actin is a family of globular multi-functional proteins that form microfilaments.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis (from Ancient Greek ἀπόπτωσις "falling off") is a process of programmed cell death that occurs in multicellular organisms.

Basement membrane

The basement membrane is a thin, fibrous, extracellular matrix of tissue that separates the lining of an internal or external body surface from underlying connective tissue in metazoans.

Capillary

A capillary is a small blood vessel from 5 to 10 micrometres (µm) in diameter, and having a wall one endothelial cell thick.

Cell (biology)

The cell (from Latin cella, meaning "small room") is the basic structural, functional, and biological unit of all known living organisms.

Collagen

Collagen is the main structural protein in the extracellular space in the various connective tissues in animal bodies.

Eicosanoid

Eicosanoids are signaling molecules made by the enzymatic or non-enzymatic oxidation of arachidonic acid or other polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) that are, similar to arachidonic acid, 20 carbon units in length.

Epithelium

Epithelium is one of the four basic types of animal tissue, along with connective tissue, muscle tissue and nervous tissue.

Extracellular matrix

In biology, the extracellular matrix (ECM) is a collection of extracellular molecules secreted by support cells that provides structural and biochemical support to the surrounding cells.

Fibroblast

A fibroblast is a type of biological cell that synthesizes the extracellular matrix and collagen, the structural framework (stroma) for animal tissues, and plays a critical role in wound healing.

Granulation tissue

Granulation tissue is new connective tissue and microscopic blood vessels that form on the surfaces of a wound during the healing process.

Injury

Injury, also known as physical trauma, is damage to the body caused by external force.

Ischemia

Ischemia or ischaemia is a restriction in blood supply to tissues, causing a shortage of oxygen that is needed for cellular metabolism (to keep tissue alive).

Macrophage

Macrophages (big eaters, from Greek μακρός (makrós).

Necrosis

Necrosis (from the Greek νέκρωσις "death, the stage of dying, the act of killing" from νεκρός "dead") is a form of cell injury which results in the premature death of cells in living tissue by autolysis.

Oxygen

Oxygen is a chemical element with symbol O and atomic number 8.

Phagocytosis

In cell biology, phagocytosis is the process by which a cell—often a phagocyte or a protist—engulfs a solid particle to form an internal compartment known as a phagosome.

Scar

A scar is an area of fibrous tissue that replaces normal skin after an injury.

Smooth muscle tissue

Smooth muscle is an involuntary non-striated muscle.

Thrombus

A thrombus, colloquially called a blood clot, is the final product of the blood coagulation step in hemostasis.
