Objective To investigate the effect of mixed-skin grafting with autologous microskin and allogenetic acellular dermal matrix microskin on wound healing in rats,and to make a further study on the related mechanism.Methods Wistar rats were served as a allogenetic acellular dermal matrix donor rats,and SD rats as acceptors with mould of full thickness skin defects on their back.The ninety SD rats were divided into 5 groups with 18 rats in each group.Group 1 was transplanted with autologous microskin,and group 2 with allogenetic acellular dermal matrix microskin.Groups 3,4 and 5 were grafted with mixed-skin ratio between autologous microskin and allogenetic acellular dermal matrix microskin 1 ∶ 1,1 ∶ 0.5 and 1 ∶ 0.25,repectively.The rate of wound healing was measured,wound samples collected,hematoxylin and eosin stain carried out,fibronectin (FN) and laminin (LN)detected,and intergroup comparison made,respectively,2,3 and 4 weeks after skin grafting.Results The wound healing rates and FN and LN expression of mixed-skin grafting groups were higher than those of the group with autologous microskin grafting.The group of 1 ∶ 0.25 obviously increased (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Conclusions The wound healing rate with mixed-skin grafting is higher than that with autologous microskin grafting.The best effect is achieved when the skin ratio between autologous microskin and allogenetic acellular dermal matrix microskin is 1 ∶ 0.25.It is possibly due to the increase of FN and LN on wound skin surface.
