Host defense is essential to all vertebrates, and programs of inflammation and wound
healing must be highly integrated in tissue and organ structures, such as the skin, cornea,
and mucosa, that provide crucial barriers and interfaces with the external environment.
Certain aspects of inflammation and wound healing have posed a conundrum for biologists,
especially to the extent that the two programs may appear to operate in opposition to each
other. The recruitment of neutrophils to injured tissue, for example, is essential to …
