Keloid explant culture: a model for keloid fibroblasts isolation and cultivation based on the biological differences of its specific regions

Abstract: In vitro studies with keloid fibroblasts frequently present contradictory results. This may occur because keloids present distinct genotypic and phenotypic characteristics in its different regions, such as the peripheral region in relation to the central region. We suggest an explant model for keloid fibroblasts harvesting, standardising the initial processing of keloid samples to obtain fragments from different regions, considering its biological differences, for primary cell culture. The different keloid reg… Show more

“…The medium in the petri dish was removed and replaced once every three days. 17 The cells were observed until 80% confluent had been achieved, the periodontal tissues were then removed, and the medium was washed with PBS. 18 During the secondary culture stage, 2ml of trypsin-EDTA 0.25% (SM-2003-C Sigma-Aldrich Pte.…”

“…After exeresis of the keloid lesions, samples were obtained from adjacent skin and peripheral keloid (between the excisional margin and the central umbilication) of the surgical specimens using a circular punch of 3 mm diameter, from the epithelialized surface of tissue containing epithelium and connective tissue 18 .…”

“…The proliferative effect of neuropeptides on fibroblasts may cause disturbances of wound healing, which may be associated with hyperproliferative skin disorders (e.g., keloids) and mesenchymal disorders (e.g., scleroderma) [36,48,49]. The understanding of the neuropeptidergic action on fibroblasts may provide relevant information to a deeper comprehension of the healing process.…”
