pubmed:abstractText
Extensive full-thickness burns require replacement of both epidermis and dermis. We have described a method in which allogeneic dermis from engrafted cryopreserved cadaver skin was combined with cultured autologous keratinocytes. In the present study we combined human keratinocytes and fibroblasts, and acellular human dermis in vitro and transplanted this "reconstituted skin" into athymic mice. Both human papillary dermis in which the basement membrane zone has been retained and human reticular dermis that has been repopulated with human dermal fibroblasts are good substrates for keratinocyte attachment, stratification, growth, and differentiation. Both of these dermal preparations can be lyophilized and stored at room temperature without losing their ability to support keratinocyte growth. In contrast, human papillary dermis that has been treated with trypsin lacks laminin and collagen type IV in the BMZ and supports keratinocyte attachment and differentiation less well.
