Epithelial cells are packed tightly together and serve as a barrier between the interior and the exterior of your body. ... Some examples are taste buds and the lining of the nose, eyes, and ears.

Ulcers, bleeding and bacterial infections may result and the chances of these occurring increases the longer wounds remain open. Fortunately, epithelial cell sheets are self-repairing.

They found IL-10 promotes intestinal epithelial wound repair through the activation of cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) signaling at the sites of injury, followed by synthesis and ...
