More Information
Summary:•Nanoskin® is a bacterial cellulose membrane.•Nanoskin® increased the production of IL-10 by lymphocytes and stem cells.•Nanoskin® is a promising biomaterial to be used as a cell carrier-scaffold. We evaluated the feasibility of Nanoskin®, a bacterial cellulose (BC) nanofiber membrane, as a potential scaffold for cell transference therapy. Nanoskin® does not induce lymphocyte proliferation, but it does not kill lymphocytes. Human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and lymphocytes produced significantly elevated amounts of interleukin (IL)-10 (p = 0.0005; p = 0.02) when in contact with Nanoskin®. In conclusion, the Nanoskin® can be a promising biomaterial for use as a cell carrier-scaffold in cell transference therapies.
