Fabrication of engineered skin substitutes provides an alternative approach for the treatment of full-thickness burns and other skin injuries. Improving the functionality of current skin substitute models requires incorporation of skin appendages, including hair follicles, sebaceous glands, and sweat glands. In this chapter, methods for generating skin substitutes incorporating chimeric hair follicles are described. Isolation of human keratinocytes, human fibroblasts, and murine dermal papilla cells is first outlined. These cell types are then combined with collagen-glycosaminoglycan (GAG) scaffolds to generate human-murine chimeric grafts which are then grafted to full-thickness surgical wounds in immunodeficient mice. The methods described allow for the generation of a human-mouse follicular structure.
工程化皮肤替代物的制造为全层烧伤和其他皮肤损伤的治疗提供了一种替代方法。改善当前皮肤替代模型的功能需要纳入皮肤附属器,包括毛囊、皮脂腺和汗腺。在本章中,将描述生成包含嵌合毛囊的皮肤替代物的方法。首先概述人角质形成细胞、人成纤维细胞和小鼠真皮乳头细胞的分离。然后将这些细胞类型与胶原-糖胺聚糖(GAG)支架结合,以生成人-鼠嵌合移植物,然后将其移植到免疫缺陷小鼠的全层手术伤口上。所描述的方法能够生成人-小鼠毛囊结构。
