Description

The present invention is directed to a method for assessing the healing status of a wound in a mammal, which method comprises measuring the amount of at least one lymphocyte cell membrane antigen present in a sample of body fluid or tissue. It has been found that the ratio of T-lymphocyte antigens CD4 and CD8 vary depending on the healing status of a wound. Assessment of the healing status assists in identifying the correct treatment to promote healing.

La présente invention se rapporte à un procédé permettant d'évaluer l'état de cicatrisation d'une plaie chez un mammifère. Ce procédé consiste à mesurer la quantité d'au moins un antigène de membrane cellulaire d'un lymphocyte dans un échantillon de fluides ou de tissus corporels. Il a été démontré que le rapport des classes de différenciation, CD4 sur CD8, des antigènes des lymphocytes T varie en fonction de l'état de cicatrisation d'une plaie. L'évaluation de l'état de la cicatrisation aide à identifier le traitement correct permettant d'accélérer la cicatrisation.
