The ultimate goal in skin
tissue regeneration is to develop artificial skin replacements for therestoration of damaged or missing skins in patients as well as to enhance wound
healing processes.
Skin tissue engineering |
Fibrin, a
naturally-occurring biopolymer involved in wound healing has seen widespread
use in tissue engineering due to its bioactivity, biocompatibility,
biodegradability, and facile processability. However, the versatile biopolymer
should be further explored and more specifically for skin tissue engineering
strategies due to its remarkable skin repair capacity: intrinsic healing
properties, adaptable to biomaterial design from its fibrinogen and thrombin
precursors and tunable physico-chemical features.
