title: [Autologous epidermal sheets production for skin cellular therapy].
abstract: Cell therapy is becoming a very interesting solution to replace degenerated or damaged tissues. In January 1998, Genevrier Laboratories inaugurated a new department especially designed for the production of cultured cells as therapeutic agents. Meeting clinician therapeutic needs by providing autologous keratinocytes and chondrocytes in the near future, represents the primary aim of the Biotechnology department. Concrete cell-based products are already being used for the treatment of burns and cutaneous chronic wounds such as the EPIBASE graft, which corresponds to an epidermis sheet composed of cultured autologous keratinocytes.
