Interakce kožních a kmenových buněk s nanovlákennými polymery pro konstrukci kožních náhrad

The skin is the largest organ of a human body with a crucial role in the maintenance of homeostasis; therefore any extensive skin injury leads to severe complications. Since the application of auto-, allo- and xeno-grafts is accompanied by severe problems like the source limitation and the graft rejection, a bioengineered skin substitute seems to be one of the promising healing approach. This work is focused mainly on the construction of a pre- vascularized skin substitute consisting of a collagen hydrogel reinforced by a biodegradable nanofibrous membrane. Another strategy described in this work is the development of temporary cellulose-based wound dressings. For both research strategies, various cell types were utilized, i.e. normal human dermal fibroblasts (NHDFs), human keratinocytes (hKs), adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ADSCs) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). In order to enhance the cell adhesion and growth, the synthetic nanofibrous membranes were improved by protein nanocoatings. It was found out that NHDFs and ADSCs preferred fibrin nanocoatings, mainly thin fibrin homogeneous mesh on the surface of the membrane. Keratinocytes rather adhered and stratified on collagen substrates. These observations further motivated the construction of the bi-layered construct, where...
