The project aims at developing an innovative therapeutic approach for the therapy of critical wounds, based on the expansion of autologous human endothelial cells in a bioreactor. In particular, the project wishes to demonstrate that these cells, in combination with various scaffolds, promote the re-vascularization and healing of skin wounds in a pre-clinical model of peripheral ischemia.
