Histological analysis. Macroscopic appearance. (a) Bilayered skin model (epidermis + dermis). (b) Dermal model (without epidermis), histological analysis, and Masson’s trichrome staining. (c) Bilayered skin model (10x magnification, scale bar = 100 μm). (d) Endothelialized bilayered skin model (20x magnification). (e) Ex vivo skin capillary (40x magnification, scale bar = 20 μm). (f) Dermal model (20x magnification, scale bar = 50 μm). Capillary-like tubes (CLTs) are indicated with arrows.
