Black conservative critics like Thomas Sowell concur, adding that government programs allow blacks to blame racism for their self-inflicted wounds.
Immunoblot analysis for FN extracted from excision wounds showed that by 3 days after injury the cCAF-treated wounds contained more FN than the control wounds but that the levels by 7 days are similar to those of the control (Fig.
We showed previously that cCAF is highly expressed in the granulation tissue of wounds [ 6 36 ] , that this chemokine and several of its human homologues stimulate differentiation of fibroblasts into myofibroblasts both in culture and in vivo, and that the latter effect can be achieved very effectively by the N-terminal 15aas of the protein [ 4 37 ] . In addition to cCAF, other CXC chemokines have been associated with wound healing events.
We show that: (i) cCAF stimulates TN expression and that a 15 aa peptide containing the N-terminal sequence causes the same effects as the whole molecule; (ii) in contrast to its effects on TN production, cCAF-induced increase in FN and Coll I accumulation requires the whole molecule; (iii) the increase in FN protein is not a result of a corresponding increase in mRNA, or increase in MMP production or PA activity but appears to be linked TN production; (iv) increase in Coll I correlates with decreased levels of MMP-1; (v) cCAF chemoattracts fibroblasts and accelerates their migration; (vi) treatment of excision wounds with cCAF increased the levels of all three ECM molecules in the granulation tissue of wounds albeit with different dynamics.
The concluded induction of both transcripts in wounds from badly healing animals compared well to quantitative RT-PCR data (Table 1).
