Engineering bi-layered skin-like nanopads with electrospun nanofibers and chitosan films for promoting fibroblast infiltration in tissue regeneration and wound healing.

This study presents an innovative bi-layered three-dimensional skin-like nanopad (SLN) engineered for skin tissue regeneration. The SLN integrates a mechanically supportive polycaprolactone nanofibrous layer with a functional chitosan hydrogel film, mimicking natural skin. Our SLN exhibits superior flexibility, with a maximum elongation of 751.
