摘要：ad-MVF were isolated from C57BL/6-Tg(CAG-EGFP)1Osb/J mice and seeded onto collagen-glycosaminoglycan matrices. Non-seeded and prevascularized matrices were implanted into full-thickness skin defects on the skull of CD1 nu/nu mice for 21 days. Vascularization, lymphangiogenesis and incorporation of the matrices were analyzed using photo-acoustic imaging, trans-illumination stereomicroscopy, histology, and immunohistochemistry. The survival rate of STSG was assessed by planimetry. After 21 days, the density of microvascular and lymphatic networks was significantly higher in prevascularized matrices when compared to controls. This was associated with an improved implant integration. Moreover, prevascularization with ad-MVF allowed successful autologous skin grafting already at day 10, while coverage of non-seeded controls at day 10 resulted in STSG necrosis. In conclusion, ad-MVF represent powerful vascularization units. Seeded on dermal substitutes, they accelerate and enhance the healing of full-thickness skin defects and allow early coverage with STSG.
