further refinement is required to produce a clinically effective and commercially
viable product.
Further developments would see the inclusion of skin appendages such as hair
follicles and sweat glands into skin replacements and it has been shown that
allogeneic hair follicle stem cells can result in the regeneration of hair follicles
(Reynolds
et al
., 1999). A combination of developments in high-tech materials and
a rapidly increasing understanding of cell behaviour and differentiation should
make these advances possible.
