Macrophages are integral to the wound healing process, as they migrate to the injury site to perform phagocytosis [1] and release growth factors to stimulate tissue repair [2]. Their presence is a critical phase of the inflammatory response, typically becoming the primary immune cells between days two and five post-injury [3]. Furthermore, pharmacological interventions targeting macrophage pathways have been shown to accelerate the overall wound healing process [4].

claimDuring the cellular response phase of wound healing, neutrophils and macrophages migrate to the wound site to perform phagocytosis, which is the ingestion and digestion of microorganisms, debris, and damaged tissue.

claimThe inflammatory response in wound healing follows a specific timeline: neutrophils arrive at the wound site within the first hour after injury and remain the most prevalent cells for the first two days, after which macrophages become the primary cells from day two to day five.

claimThe inflammation phase of wound healing occurs between 1 and 6 days post-injury and is characterized by the influx of immune cells, starting with neutrophils clearing debris and bacteria, followed by macrophages that remove debris and release growth factors to stimulate fibroblast and endothelial cell activity.
