Abstract

Intricate dynamics of lipid transformations was detected in rat skin wound field during regeneration. The content of lipids increased in the granulation fibrous tissue during the early period of regeneration and decreased later. On day 23 the regeneration process was over, the formed scar tissue differed from intact skin by the content of many lipid fractions. in the crust and skin sites adjacent to the wound the regeneration was associated with significant changes in the lipid composition.
