Background: Re-epithelialization has an important role in skin wound healing. Delays in re-epithelialization are more likely to create the chronic wound. Impaired wound healing leads to a large burden of morbidity and mortality. Current treatments based on the use of autografts, allografts and xenografts, suffer from limitations such as, quantity of donor skin available, donor-site infection, p...

objective: the organotypic co-culture is a well-known technique to examine cellular interactions and their roles in stem cell proliferation and differentiation. this study aims to evaluate the effects of dermal fibroblasts (dfs) on epidermal differentiation of adipose-derived stem cells (ascs) using a three-dimensional (3d) organotypic coculture technique. materials and methods: in this experim...

KFGS (Keratinocyte fibrin glue suspension) and FKFGS (Fibroblast keratinocyte fibrin glue suspension) methods were performed in this study. Materials and Methods: Four healthy adult horses were used in this study (350 ± 117). Fibroblast cells have been separated by explant culture method from neck, keratinocyte cells have been separated by enzyme digestion from lib skin samples and Fibrinogen h...

Background: Hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) located in the bulge area has shown to be highly proliferative and could differentiate into neurons, glia, smooth muscle cell, and melanocytes in vitro. Simvastatin is an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor that exerts pleiotropic effects beyond simple low-density lipoprotein lowering and has a similar impact on the differentiation of bone marrow stromal cel...

stem cells are the cells having some distinguishing characteristics like longevity, high capacity of self-renewal and differentiation, quiescence and highly error-free proliferation. almost all stem cells have the potential of lineage reprogramming, i.e. inter-conversion of cell lineages. they also have the potential to differentiate into almost all kinds of cells. these cells have been found i...

evaluation of autogenous fibrinogen extracted from horse blood in fibrin glue and it's effects on horse's fibroblast and keratinocyte cells were preformed. fibrinogen has been obtained by glycine precipitation technique from horse's blood. fibroblast cells were separated by explant culture method from neck skin and keratinocytes were separated by enzyme digestion from lib samples...

background: extensive full-thickness burns require replacement of both epidermis and dermis. in designing skin replacements, the goal has been to re-create this model and make a product which has both essential components. methods: in the present study, we developed procedures for establishing confluent, stratified layers of cultured human keratinocytes on the surface of modified collagen-chito...

The effects of dermal fibroblasts on keratinocyte outgrowth on collagen substrata was studied using an in vitro keratinocyte-collagen gel composite model. Skin fibroblasts were seeded inside collagen gels, which remained attached to the cell culture plastic substratum. Fibroblasts incorporated in collagen gels were either kept viable throughout the study, or were lysed hypotonically with water ...

objective(s) the process of wound healing involves tightly integrated events including inflammation, granulation tissue formation and remodeling. systemic administration of l-arginine promotes wound healing but its global side effects are undesirable. to confine the action of l-arginine at the site of injury, we tested the effects of local administration of l-arginine on the healing of excision...
