homeostasis/metabolism
• wound areas are significantly larger in transgenic mice than controls at 3 and 7 days post-wounding
• wound length and dermal gape are increased relative to controls at 3 and 7 days after wounding
• scratch wounds in confluent fibroblast cultures close faster in wild-type cultures than in transgenic cultures

• wound length and dermal gape are increased relative to controls at 3 and 7 days after wounding
• length of neoepidermis is similar to controls, but percentage of re-epithelialization at 3 days after wounding is significantly decreased
• cell proliferation within epidermis of wounds is similar in wild-type, Flii-deficient heterozygous mice and transgenic mice, but significantly fewer proliferating cells are detected in dermis of wounds in transgenic mice at 7 days after wounding
