Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Many factors can lead to a large area of skin defects, and tissue-engineered artificial skil transplantation composed by seeding cel s and scaffold materials can be used for skin defect repair. OBJECTIVE: To construct the skin implantation scaffold based on human epidermal stem cel s combined with acel ular dermal matrix in nude mice. METHODS: Human epidermal stem cel s from children’s foreskin were isolated and cultured, and the skin of nude mice was obtained to prepare acel ular dermal matrix scaffold. Then, the human epidermal stem cel s were cultured on the acel ular dermal matrix scaffold to construct artificial skin. Ten Sprague-Dawley rats were equivalently randomly divided into two groups: rats treated by human epidermal stem cel s combined with acel ular dermal matrix scaffold as combined group, and those treated by simple acel ular dermal scaffold as acel ular dermal scaffold group after skin defect models were prepared. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The artificial skin was milky white, soft and elastic, not easy to break, and has good flexibility, and good plasticity, and could be processed into different shapes. No obvious exudation appeared in the rat wound of two groups after repair. At 2 weeks after modeling, the transplanted skin showed good growth and skin wound healed gradual y in the combined group. In contrast, scar healing and two animals with transplant failure occurred in the acel ular dermal scaffold group. These results show that human epidermal stem cel s combined with acel ular dermal materials in nude mice can construct the tissue-engineered skin, which exerts good repair effects for skin defects in animals.
