  5. 13. Keratinocytes in tissue engineering of human skin: invitro and in vivo studies

    Author : Camilla Fredriksson; Gunnar Kratz; Fredrik Huss; Xiao-Feng Sun; Bengt Gerdin; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Keratinocytes tissue engineering; Plastic surgery; Plastikkirurgi;

    Abstract : Full thickness wounds, such as deep burns, need restoration of both the dermal and epidermal layers of the skin. In normal wound healing, re-epithelialization occurs by migration and proliferation of keratinocytes from the wound edges and by differentiation of stem cells from remaining hair follicles.
