Department of Pathology, Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University, No. 36 Sanhao Street, Shenyang, Liaoning 110004, China.

Published: January 2025

Stem cells (SCs) can self-replicate and differentiate into multiple lineages. Organoids, 3D cultures derived from SCs, can replicate the spatial structure and physiological characteristics of organs . Skin organoids can effectively simulate the physiological structure and function of skin tissue, reliably restoring the natural skin ecology in various environments. Skin organoids have been employed extensively in skin development and pathology research, offering valuable insights for drug screening. Moreover, they play crucial roles in skin regeneration and tissue repair. This in-depth review explores the construction and applications of skin organoids in wound healing, with a focus on their construction process, including skin appendage integration, and significant advancements in wound-healing research.

Background: Keloids are disfiguring, fibrotic scar-like lesions that are challenging to treat and commonly recur after therapy. A deeper understanding of the mechanisms driving keloid formation is necessary for the development of more effective therapies. Reduced vitamin D receptor (VDR) expression has been observed in keloids, implicating vitamin D signaling in keloid pathology.

Background: Rodent models have been widely used to investigate skin development, but do not account for significant differences in composition compared to human skin. On the other hand, two-dimensional and three-dimensional engineered skin models still lack the complex features of human skin such as appendages and pigmentation. Recently, hair follicle containing skin organoids (SKOs) with a stratified epidermis, and dermis layer have been generated as floating spheres from human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs).

Hair follicle (HF) development and pigmentation are complex processes governed by various signaling pathways, such as TGF-β and FGF signaling pathways. Nestin + (neural crest like) stem cells are also expressed in HF stem cells, particularly in the bulge and dermal papilla region. However, the specific role and differentiation potential of these Nestin-positive cells within the HF remain unclear, especially regarding their contribution to melanocyte formation and hair pigmentation.

Objective: The skin is a complex organ that includes various stem cell populations. Current approaches for non-healing skin defects are sometimes inadequate and many attempts have been made to regenerate skin integrity. The aim of this review is to bridge the gap between basic research and clinical application of skin integrity regeneration.
