Tissue regeneration

Tissue regeneration is the process of renewal and growth to repair or replace tissue that is damaged or suffers from a disease.

The utilization of epidermal stem cells for wound healing and tissue regeneration has been attracting increased attention from researchers. In addition, the advances in tissue engineering have increased the interest in applying epidermal stem cells in tissue-engineered scaffolds to further reconstitute injured tissues 1).
