penicillamine and Cicatrix

penicillamine has been researched along with Cicatrix in 11 studies

Penicillamine: 3-Mercapto-D-valine. The most characteristic degradation product of the penicillin antibiotics. It is used as an antirheumatic and as a chelating agent in Wilson's disease.
penicillamine : An alpha-amino acid having the structure of valine substituted at the beta position with a sulfanyl group.

Cicatrix: The fibrous tissue that replaces normal tissue during the process of WOUND HEALING.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Ten patients with massive keloids, resistant to conventional therapy by excision, grafting, and/or intralesional injection of steroids, have been treated by excising the keloid, grafting the defect, inducing lathyrism with Beta aminopropionitrile fumurate or penicillamine and administering colchicine."3.66Pharmacologic control of surface scarring in human beings. ( Peacock, EE, 1981)
"In other situations, as in the treatment of keloids, physicians may wish to introduce drugs known to reduce scar formation into the biologic environment in which wound healing ensues."1.26Wound healing: a review. IV. Systemic medications affecting wound healing. ( Pollack, SV, 1982)
