Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Patients with thermal burn injury leading to formation of hypertrophic scars around major joints

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: The patients within three months of burn injury will be excluded

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The expected outcome of this study would be better understanding of how WNT signaling pathway functions at the molecular level in human post burn hypertrophic scar fibroblasts Timepoint: The hypertrophic scar derived fibroblasts would be treated with WNT inhibitors/activator for 7 days and then RNA and proteins would be harvested for molecular analysis

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
NATimepoint: NA
