The experiment of porcine keratinocytes cultured on porcine small intestinal submucosa in vitro / 中华整形外科杂志

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the feasibility of acellular porcine small intestinal submucosa (SIS as bioscaffold of tissue engineering skin.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The second passage keratinocytes were seeded on SIS, after seeded for 11, 13, 15, 17 days, the keratinocytes/SIS composites were observed by dye directly, histopathology, immunohistochemical studies with monoclonal antibodies against laminin and transmission electron microscope (TEM).</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>At eleventh day, keratinocytes were growth very well on the surface of SIS, there are 2-3 cell layers on partial of the SIS surface, the continued expression of laminin can be detected between the keratinocytes and the surface of SIS. After 13, 15, 17 days this stratified structure increased, cells contact more closely, the tonofibrils in cells, desmosome between cells and the basal membrane between the keratinocytes and the surface of SIS can be seen with TEM.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>SIS is a kind of good bioscaffold in the culture of porcine keratinocytes in vitro.</p>
