TPA → temporary swelling → possible tissue remodeling?
before someone calls this schizo cope
Found this research chemical called TPA (12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate). It’s used in mouse research to induce localized inflammation + edema.
Some studies:
So basically:
TPA → inflammation → vascular permeability → swelling → tissue remodeling
The interesting part is whether the temporary edema could theoretically be followed by some persistent remodeling after the swelling goes down.
And honestly, as a concept this sounds less brutal than beating your own face with a hammer like a jester

Some studies:
- Young et al. 1983 — TPA-induced mouse-ear edema
- De Young et al. 1989 — edema and inflammatory-cell infiltration
- Murakawa et al. 2006 — TPA-induced inflammation/edema
- Stanley et al. 1991 — repeated TPA exposure
So basically:
