Research progress on wound repair with tissue engineered skin in animal models

Tissue-engineered skin plays an important role in clinical applications, and even the rapid development of science and technology promotes the research about it. Choosing an appropriate animal model for wound repair is the prerequisite for the objective evaluation of the object of study. In this paper, the research progress of animal models of wound repair was introduced from several aspects, such as selection of experimental animals, making of wound models, skin-related cells and materials, wound healing evaluation indexes, etc., hoping to provide reference for later research work.
