Abstract | ||||
The epidermis, dermis, hypodermis, and skin appendages make up the intricate skin tissue. Processes Blood clotting, inflammation, proliferation (epithelialization, fibroplasia, angiogenesis, and granulation tissue formation), and maturation (collagen deposit or scaring tissue formation) are the four classical phases that typically overlap in the systematic process of skin wound healing (1). The severity and size of the burn, the patient's overall health, the type of skin graft or substance used to cover the burn, and other factors all have a role in how quickly the skin recovers following a burn. The effects of the healing process on burns might vary in intensity. Wound and burn healing products often include fibroblasts and keratinocytes, two types of common cells. Keratinocytes create a great number of tight intercellular connections and are the main cells that make up the epidermis, which is stratified. The primary dermal cell type, fibroblasts, are responsible for producing extracellular matrix components and secreting growth factors, cytokines, and matrix metalloproteinases. These substances guarantee the creation of extracellular matrix and the proliferation and differentiation of keratinocytes (2). Because of its many desirable characteristics, including a high proliferation rate, ease of access, and the ability to retain their potency and differentiation potential for extended periods of time, epidermal stem cells (ESC) have garnered a lot of attention as a possible treatment for skin tissue regeneration. | ||||
