Collagen Composite Scaffolds.

Biomaterial Fabrication method Cell(s) Performance Ref.
Collagen–PCL Electrospinning + PCL coating HDF Supports HDF attachment and proliferation [222]
Collagen–PCL Electrospinning + EDC crosslinking HDF, HEK No significant change in mechanical properties. Worse cell viability, lack of basal cell layer and poor epidermal formation at some PCL concentrations [96]
Collagen–PCL Electrospinning (non-cross-linked) + micro pores Neonatal foreskin fibroblast and keratinocyte Faster wound closure and dermal regeneration with more blood-vessel formation and hair follicle development [99]
Collagen–PCL Electrospinning (non-cross-linked) + micro pores DF Pre-seeded scaffolds with fibroblasts promoted greater wound-healing than acellular scaffolds [100]
collagen/PLLA-co-PCL Electrospinning (non-crosslinked) BM-MSCs Promote differentiation of BM-MSCs to keratinocyte-like cell [97]
Collagen–PCL Electrospinning + EDC crosslinking acellular Induced inflammatory response in vivo. Neutrophils destroyed the scaffold and invaded the surrounding dermis. Keratinocytes did not grow in the scaffold and rather grew under the scaffold [98]
PLLA/collagen PLLA/gelatin Freeze-drying on PLLA woven mesh HDF Improved HDF behavior in vitro. Less wound contraction than collagen sponge in vivo [232]
PLGA–collagen Freeze-drying on PLGA woven mesh HDF Enhanced skin fibroblast distribution. Dermal tissues were formed after 2 weeks and became epithelialized after 4 weeks [230]
PLGA–collagen Coating PLGA mesh Fibroblast, keratinocyte Enhanced blood vessel formation and epithelialization on rabbits [231]
PLGA–collagen Electrospinning HDF Improved HDF attachment, proliferation and extracellular matrix deposition [200]
PLGA–collagen Electrospinning BM-MSCs Faster epithelialization on mouse [228]
PCL–collagen Freeze-drying + Solvent casting 3T3, NHEK The composite films support growth of HDF and NHEK [223]
PCL–collagen Core-shell Electrospinning HDF Better HDF proliferation than pure PCL and collagen-coated PCL fibers [225]
PCL/collagen-collagen Electrospinning + collagen gel coating Human keratinocyte Presence of ultrafine collagen fibrous network significantly enhance keratinocyte migration [224]
PCL–collagen Electrospinning HDF Aligned fibers promoted elongated cell morphology, accelerated migration and differentiated to myofibroblasts [227]
