Normal human epidermal keratinocytes (KC) and dermal fibroblasts (FB) were cultured to produce full-thickness skin equivalents consisting of FB-containing dermal and stratified epidermal components with a fully developed basement membrane at the dermal/epidermal junction (EpiDerm-FT 200, EFT). The wound healing... Read More

This study by scientists at Chondrex, Inc. and the Albert Einstein School of Medicine demonstrated that MatTek’s EpiDermFT full-thickness in vitro human skin tissue equivalent can be used to assess the ability of formulations to affect the release of procollagenase,... Read More

Timely and efficient epidermal wound healing is necessary for normal skin barrier function.  Cutaneous wound healing involves interactions between dermal fibroblasts and epidermal keratinocytes as well as cell-extracellular matrix interactions (1-4).  The current study describes wound healing experiments conducted in...
