significance of cell/stem cell therapy in wound care management

wound care management is a continuous challenging task for researchers and tissue engineers. skin substitutes (synthetic and natural) have been introduced as emergency replacements/grafts to the damaged skin and a number of problems such as infection, graft rejection, inadequate healing, short shelf life etc. have reduced their clinical importance as being the ideal skin substitutes. a number of novel ideas have been presented in last decades which have focused on the applications of stem cells as ideal candidate in the development of ideal skin substitutes.
