报告摘要:Next-Generation Full-Thickness Human Skin Models Produced using 3DElectrospun Scaffolds and Animal-Component-Free Culture MediaBackground: In vitro full-thickness human skin models are important for testing ofcosmetics, chemicals and new pharmaceuticals. However, these models commonly utilizeanimal-derived collagen as a main element of the stromal matrix. Additionally, culturemedia used to produce these models commonly contain undesirable animal-derivedcomponents including fetal bovine serum (FBS) and bovine pituitary extract (BPE). Toaddress these shortcomings, we developed full-thickness skin models without animal-derived collagen using electrospun scaffolds as structural components, together withopen-source FBS/BPE-free culture media formulations.Methods: (Bio-Spun™) electrospun scaffolds are composed of randomly oriented fiberswith diameters similar to that of native extracellular matrix. Scaffolds were attached toTranswell® inserts in place of typical microporous membrane supports. To produce thedermal component, Bio-Spun™ scaffolds were seeded with primary human dermalfibroblasts and cultured under submerged conditions in FBS/BPE-free medium Primaryhuman epidermal keratinocytes were then seeded onto the stromal components. Theconstructs were cultured at the air-liquid interface (ALI) in FBS/BPE-free ALI epidermaldifferentiation medium (open-source, BioSurfaces) to produce fully developed 3D full-thickness epidermal tissue models. Histochemical and immunohistochemical staining,and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were utilized to evaluate morphological andultrastructural features. Tissue barrier was evaluated by measuring Triton X-100penetration using a time-to-toxicity (ET50) assay.Results: H&E-stained paraffin sections revealed robust stromal components populatedwith viable fibroblasts. The fibroblasts proliferated within the synthetic scaffolds andsynthesized native collagen and extracellular matrix materials that self-assembled toproduce robust and stable stromal matrices within 3-6 days. Immunohistochemical staining revealed uniform collagen I deposition throughout the entire electrospun dermalcomponent. TEM of the dermal-epidermal junction showed large numbers of striatedcollagen fibers and a well-developed basement membrane.. H&E-stained paraffin sectionsalso showed well-developed stratified epidermis by Day 10 following ALI culture,consisting of basal, spinous, granular and stratum corneum components. TEM of thestratum corneum showed abundant production and deposition of lamellar lipid sheetsbetween the corneocytes. A viable epidermal layer with stable thickness was maintainedfor at least Day 35 after ALI (longest timepoint evaluated to date), providing an extendedwindow of useful downstream experimentation time. The production protocol wassuccessfully transferred to an independent research laboratory (IIVS), where tissues withcomparable histology were readily produced. Functional barrier assessment conducted byIIVS determined an ET50 of ~13 hours, demonstrated a robust stratum corneum barrier.Conclusions: Next-generation, in vitro full-thickness human skin models were producedusing animal collagen-free 3D electrospun scaffolds and open-source FBS/BPE-freeculture media formulations. The fully human skin models provide long-term stability anddo not suffer from contraction and stromal degradation issues. These next-generationskin models offer promise for completely animal-product-free testing of cosmetics,chemicals, and pharmaceuticals
