In vivo microscopy of healing wounds within dorsal skinfold chambers. (a) Stereomicroscopic images of a PRP-treated and a PRP + NF-treated wound on days 0, 3, 6, 10 and 14 (solid lines = initial wound borders; broken lines = wound borders at the indicated time points). (b) Wound area (% of day 0) of PRP-treated (white bars; n = 8) and PRP + NF-treated (black bars; n = 8) wounds on days 0, 3, 6, 10 and 14, as assessed by stereomicroscopy. Mean ± SEM. *p < 0.05 vs. PRP. (c) Intravital fluorescence microscopic images of a PRP-treated and a PRP + NF-treated wound with first blood-perfused microvessels at the wound border (arrows) on day 6 (broken lines = wound borders). (d, e) Perfused ROIs (d, %) and functional microvessel density (e, cm/cm²) of PRP-treated (white bars; n = 8) and PRP + NF-treated (black bars; n = 8) wounds on days 0, 3, 6, 10 and 14, as assessed by intravital fluorescence microscopy. Mean ± SEM. *p < 0.05 vs. PRP.
