Difference between Hypertrophic scar and Wound healing

Hypertrophic scar vs. Wound healing

A hypertrophic scar is a cutaneous condition characterized by deposits of excessive amounts of collagen which gives rise to a raised scar, but not to the degree observed with keloids. Wound healing is an intricate process in which the skin repairs itself after injury.

Similarities between Hypertrophic scar and Wound healing

Hypertrophic scar and Wound healing have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Collagen, Dermis, Keloid, Scar, Transforming growth factor beta.

Collagen

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

Dermis

The dermis or corium is a layer of skin between the epidermis (with which it makes up the cutis) and subcutaneous tissues, that primarily consists of dense irregular connective tissue and cushions the body from stress and strain.

Keloid

Keloid, also known as keloid disorder and keloidal scar, is the formation of a type of scar which, depending on its maturity, is composed mainly of either type III (early) or type I (late) collagen.

Transforming growth factor beta

Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) is a multifunctional cytokine belonging to the transforming growth factor superfamily that includes four different isoforms (TGF-β 1 to 4, HGNC symbols TGFB1, TGFB2, TGFB3, TGFB4) and many other signaling proteins produced by all white blood cell lineages.
