Engenharia de tecidos para regeneração da pele: retrospectiva e perspectivas futuras

Abstract

Este trabalho foi desenvolvido com o objetivo de tentar compreender a evolução da biotecnologia, mais concretamente da área da engenharia de tecidos, contextualizada com a evolução, em simultâneo, da área tecnológico-científica dos últimos anos e, em particular, da engenharia de tecidos aplicada à pele. Recentemente, tem-se vindo cada vez mais a assistir a uma grande evolução na área de tratamento de inúmeras doenças através de novos métodos não convencionais. A engenharia de tecidos e a descoberta das células tronco foram as ferramentas chave que possibilitaram tal evolução. Como a pele é o maior órgão do corpo humano e está em constante contacto com o meio externo, a sua suscetibilidade a lesões incapacitantes e limitantes da qualidade de vida do Homem é muito elevada. Como forma de fazer face a tais lesões, a biotecnologia tem vindo a desenvolver substitutos biológicos, com recurso a tecnologia de ponta, cada vez mais semelhantes à pele humana, através da engenharia de tecidos. This work was developed with the aim of trying to understand the evolution of biotechnology, more specifically of the tissue engineering area, which was contextualised with the simultaneous evolution of the technological-scientific area from the last years and, in particular, of the tissue engineering applied to skin. Recently, it has been possible to look at a large evolution in the treatment area of several diseases through non-conventional new methods. Tissue engineering and the discovery of stem cells have been the key tools that made that evolution possible. Since the skin is the largest human body organ and it is in constant contact with the external environment, it has a very high susceptibility to injuries which are disabling and limiting of Man’s quality of life. As a way of coping with such injuries, biotechnology has been developing biological substitutes, by using the latest technology, which are increasingly similar to human skin, through tissue engineering.
