The repair process of the epithelium is mediated by two separate mechanisms. 12 The first
process is called restitution. 13 This is an important response to minor to moderate injury.
When the basement membrane underlying the sloughed epithelium is intact, residual
epithelial cells at the edges of the wound move along the basement membrane and reseal
the denuded area. This process is promoted by SEMF-derived growth factors [transforming
growth factor (TGF)-β, epidermal
