Skin dECM | Electrospun PLGA nanofibrous sheet  +  Skin-derived dECM nanofiber scaffold | Wound-healing properties Tissue regeneration cues | Bilayer (upper: epidermis layer; lower: dermis layer) membranous (BLM) nanofiber scaffold | Skin tissue | [268] |
Limitations of dECM-based systems | Despite their compositional similarity to native tissues, the solubilization and thermal cross-linking processes in dECM hydrogel production impair the native fibrous protein structures and long-term structural stability, respectively |
