Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular to a culture method for inducing skin blood vessels in vitro. Background Art
[0002] Artificial skin models are widely used in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries to predict the irritation and corrosiveness of specific substances to the skin. Artificial skin models are very similar to human skin in structure and function. At present, the application of commercialized artificial skin models is very common in many countries. However, commercialized skin has no blood vessels. This type of skin without blood vessels can only be used in the cosmetics industry and cannot be used in skin clinical trials, such as burn transplantation, because this type of skin faces a problem. This type of skin tissue has no blood vessels and cannot be fully integrated with the host, and will eventually necrotize. Summary of the invention

[0207] Traditional artificial skin models are widely used in drug testing and cosmetic research, but they lack vascular structure and cannot be applied to clinical skin repair.
[0208] The purpose of this experiment is to evaluate the advantages of the method of the present invention in terms of angiogenesis ability, tissue survival rate, oxygen and nutrient transfer efficiency, etc. by comparing the performance of the culture method of the present invention (experimental group 1 in Example 1) and the traditional artificial skin model.
[0209] Experimental design
[0210] Experimental groups:
[0211] Experimental group: The culture method of the present invention (experimental group 1 in Example 1) was used to construct a 3D skin model with a vascular structure.
[0212] Control group: traditional artificial skin model without vascular structure.
[0213] Evaluation Metrics:
[0214] Blood vessel formation rate: HE staining and immunofluorescence staining were used to evaluate the number of blood vessels and the expression level of vascular protein (CD31) in the tissue.
[0215] Tissue survival rate: MTT was used to detect cell survival rate and evaluate the biological activity of the skin model.
[0216] Oxygen and nutrient transfer efficiency: The oxygen and nutrient utilization capacity of the skin model was evaluated by measuring the oxygen concentration and glucose consumption rate in the tissue.
[0217] Repair ability: In a simulated wound repair model, the ability of the skin model to promote wound repair was evaluated by measuring the healing area.
[0218] Experimental process:
[0219] Experimental group preparation: A 3D skin model with a vascular structure was cultured according to the method of Experimental Group 1 in Example 1.
[0220] Preparation of the control group: An artificial skin model without a vascular structure was prepared according to the traditional method, using the same cell types (without adding human umbilical vein endothelial cells), and the culture medium did not contain EGF and IL-10.
[0221] Determination method:
[0222] HE staining: observe the presence and distribution of vascular structures in the two groups of skin models.
[0223] Immunofluorescence staining: CD31 protein expression was detected by confocal microscopy.
[0224] MTT assay: Active cells from the two groups of skin models were extracted separately, and the cell viability was detected using MTT reagent.
[0225] Oxygen and nutrient delivery: Oxygen concentration sensors and glucose measurement kits were used to monitor oxygen and nutrient consumption in both groups of tissues.
[0226] Wound repair experiment: Two groups of skin models were transplanted onto simulated wounds, the healing area was measured, and the repair ability was evaluated.

[0228] Table 2:
[0229]
[0230] Results and Discussion
[0231] Angiogenesis rate and CD31 protein expression:
[0232] The method of the present invention (experimental group) successfully constructed a 3D skin model with a vascular structure. A clear vascular structure was observed under HE staining, and a high level of CD31 protein expression was detected under confocal microscopy, proving that the vascularization was successful.
[0233] The control group (traditional artificial skin model) had no vascular structure at all and the CD31 protein test was negative.
[0234] Tissue survival rate and oxygen and nutrient transfer efficiency:
[0235] The vascular structure in the experimental group significantly improved the efficiency of oxygen and nutrient delivery, allowing the cell survival rate in the tissue to reach 95%, significantly higher than the 60% in the control group.
[0236] The control group lacked blood vessels, and the deep tissues were unable to effectively obtain oxygen and nutrients, resulting in poor cell survival rate and functionality.
[0237] Wound repair ability:
[0238] The experimental group model showed superior repair ability in the simulated wound repair experiment, with the healing area reaching 85%, much higher than the 35% of the control group.
[0239] The control group had a slow wound repair rate and a small healing area due to the lack of vascular support.
[0240] Summarize
[0241] Through comparative experiments, the results fully demonstrate the significant advantages of the method of the present invention:
[0242] The 3D skin model with blood vessels can increase the efficiency of oxygen and nutrient delivery and significantly improve tissue activity.
[0243] The introduction of blood vessels greatly improves the functionality and clinical application value of the skin model. For example, the wound repair effect is far better than that of traditional artificial skin models.
[0244] The method of the present invention shows obvious advantages in terms of angiogenesis, tissue function and repair ability, and is suitable for application in skin tissue engineering and clinical treatment.
[0245] The experimental results further verified the effectiveness and superiority of the culture method of the present invention.
[0246] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
