| Intervention | Knockout |
| Genetic background | 129 R1/C57BL/6 |
| Wound model | Full-Thickness Incision |
| Wound Dimensions | 15 mm |
| Wound Location | Dorsum |
| Effect on skin wound healing | Impaired assembly of collagen in skin wounds and around the blood vessels; reduced vascular area and impaired vascular maturation; lower expression of VEGF; no significant difference in migration of fibroblasts into the wound area was observed and the dynamics of wound closure were similar |
