Paraffin sections stained with H&E showing the histological composition of skin wounds 1 week after wound induction. In the control (A, D) and the fresh AM (B, E) groups, new blood vessels formed in the dermal layers (inset), whereas more superficial new blood vessels (arrowheads) formed in the granulation tissue (Gr) in the lyophilized AM group. The lyophilized AM group (C, F) exhibited more prominent inflammatory cell infiltration (IF, an inset). Abbreviation: E: epidermis.
