Morphological changes and expression of protein markers during remodeling of tissue-engeneered skin

The studied was carried out to evaluate the skin remodeling and skin development after bilayered fibrin – fibroblast / fibrin – keratinocytes skin equivalent (B FF/FK SE) and fibrin without seeded cell (FWC) were transplanted into eight weeks old athymic mice. During skin remodeling, the structural,...
