Cutaneous wound healing is a highly coordinated physiological process that rapidly and efficiently restores skin integrity. Reepithelization is a crucial step during wound healing, which involves migration and proliferation of keratinocytes to cover the denuded dermal surface. Recent advances in wound biology clarified the molecular pathways governing keratinocyte reepithelization at wound sites. These new findings point towards novel therapeutic targets and provide suitable methods to promote faster tissue regeneration in vivo.
