What is the Histological Structure of Bioengineered Skin?
Bioengineered skin substitutes attempt to replicate the complex histological structure of natural skin, which includes the epidermis, dermis, and sometimes the hypodermis. The epidermal component is typically made up of multiple layers of keratinocytes, while the dermal component often consists of a collagen-rich matrix that supports fibroblasts and other cell types.
