Abstract:
Objective To study a graft method of an acellular dermis composited with cultured human keratinocyte sheets,and investigate the outcomes of the composite graft on full-thickness wounds.Methods Using porcine skins,we prepared the acellular dermis and cultured human keratinocyte sheets in vitro.Athymic null mice were divided into the experimental group and the control group,the acellular xeno-dermis was implanted into the subcutaneous of the dorsal skin in experimental group,one week after the implantation the cultured keratinocyte sheets were grafted on the full-thickness defective area of the dorsal skin in the experimental group,in control group only implanted human keratinocyte sheet on the defective area wound,healing status was regular assessed,and biopsies for histological analysis and immunohistochemistry test were performed in post-operation.Results Compared with the control group,the appearance of wound coverage in the experimental group was better.Moreover,the histologic analysis revealed that fully differentiated epidermis,organized proliferated collagen fibers and significant reconstruction of epidermis-dermis junction were seen in the experimental group which lack of the acute immuno-rejection response.Conclusion As a kind of dermal substitutes,the acellular xeno-dermis can be compositely transplanted with cultured human keratinocyte sheet and can improve the quality of wound healing.
