title = "Using drosophila larvae to study epidermal wound closure and inflammation",
abstract = "This methods chapter describes two methods for creating epithelial wounds in Drosophila larvae: pinch and puncture wounding. It also covers protocols for visualizing epithelial wounds, either in a dissected whole mount preparation or, using transgenic reporter larvae, in a live whole mount preparation. Finally, useful transgenic lines for live genetic screening of genes required for wound closure or inflammation are described.",
