| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Keloid is an inflammatory and fibrotic disease. To modulate inflammation is an important approach for the treatment of keloids. We investigated the effect of immunosuppressive agents on the interaction between keloid fibroblasts and CD4+ T cells in a coculture system. Our results suggest that the agents may affect keloid formation by modulating inflammation and directly affecting keloid fibroblasts.
