Biomimetically designed medical-grade polycaprolactone (mPCL) dressings are 3D-printed with pore architecture and anisotropic mechanical characteristics that favor skin wound healing with reduced scarring. Melt electrowritten mPCL dressings are seeded with human gingival tissue multipotent mesenchymal stem/stromal cells and cryopreserved using a clinically approved method. The regenerative potential of fresh or frozen cell-seeded mPCL dressing is compared in a splinted full-thickness excisional wound in a rat model over six weeks. The application of 3D-printed mPCL dressings decreased wound contracture and significantly improved skin regeneration through granulation and re-epithelialization compared to control groups. Combining 3D-printed biomimetic wound dressings and precursor cell delivery enhances physiological wound closure with reduced scar tissue formation.
仿生设计的医疗级聚己内酯(mPCL)敷料采用 3D 打印技术制成,具有孔隙结构和各向异性机械特性,有利于皮肤伤口愈合,减少瘢痕形成。熔融电写入的 mPCL 敷料接种了人牙龈组织多能间充质干细胞,并采用临床认可的方法进行冷冻保存。在六周的时间里,在大鼠模型的带夹板全层切除伤口中比较了新鲜或冷冻细胞接种的 mPCL 敷料的再生潜力。与对照组相比,3D 打印 mPCL 敷料的应用减少了伤口收缩,并通过肉芽形成和再上皮化显著改善了皮肤再生。结合 3D 打印仿生伤口敷料和前体细胞输送可增强生理性伤口闭合,减少瘢痕组织形成。
