Formation of hardened covering (a scab) at a wound site. The scab has multiple functions including limiting blood loss, providing structural stability to the wound and guarding against infection. Any process that activates or increases the rate or extent of epithelial cell proliferation, contributing to the restoration of integrity to a damaged tissue following an injury. The migration of an epithelial cell along or through a wound gap to reestablish a continuous epithelium. Any process that increases the rate, frequency, or extent of the series of events that restore integrity to a damaged tissue, following an injury. Blood vessel formation when new vessels emerge from the proliferation of pre-existing blood vessels and contribute to the series of events that restore integrity to a damaged tissue, following an injury. A change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a stimulus indicating damage to the organism. A change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a disturbance in organismal or cellular homeostasis, usually, but not necessarily, exogenous (e.g. temperature, humidity, ionizing radiation). The series of events that restore integrity to damaged tissue during or following an inflammatory response. The regrowth of lost or destroyed tissues. Any process that modulates the rate, frequency, or extent of the series of events that restore integrity to a damaged tissue, following an injury. Any process by which factors in the hemolymph (the invertebrate equivalent of vertebrate blood and lymph) precipitate into insoluble clots in order to prevent loss of body fluid, and at the same time prevent the movement of microbes. Hemolymph coagulation is also part of the invertebrate humoral immune response. The sequential process by which the multiple coagulation factors of the blood interact, ultimately resulting in the formation of an insoluble fibrin clot; it may be divided into three stages: stage 1, the formation of intrinsic and extrinsic prothrombin converting principle; stage 2, the formation of thrombin; stage 3, the formation of stable fibrin polymers. Any process that decreases the rate, frequency, or extent of the series of events that restore integrity to a damaged tissue, following an injury. The series of events that restore integrity to a damaged tissue, following an injury. The resealing of a cell plasma membrane after cellular wounding due to, for instance, mechanical stress.
