Abstrakt: Severe burns often result in an exacerbated inflammatory response, which can contribute to further injury. This inflammatory response may lead to an increased risk of infection, multiple organ failure, and death. This study aimed to investigate the potential of reducing inflammation to enhance burn wound healing in rats using ovine's small intestinal submucosa as a carrier for Wharton's jelly mesenchymal stem cells (WJ-MSCs) and Mineral Pitch (MP). A rat burn model was developed, and the animals were divided into four groups: control group: burn, placebo group: scaffold-treated burn, cell experimental group: WJ-MSCs seeded scaffold-treated burn, and cell and MP experimental group: scaffolds loaded with WJ-MSCs and MP-treated burn. After treating the wounds in the relevant groups and sampling them on days 5, 14 and 21, histological and pathological parameters, and the expression of genes involved in angiogenesis and epithelialization were evaluated. The study results revealed several findings in the burn wounds. These included changes in mast cell populations, a decrease in inflammatory neutrophils and lymphocytes, an increase in fibroblasts and blood vessels, and upregulation of angiogenesis and epithelialization genes. These changes collectively contributed to enhanced wound healing in cell and MP experimental group compared to the other groups. The findings suggest that scaffolds loaded with Wharton's jelly-derived stem cells and MP can serve as engineered tools to modulate inflammatory conditions during the burn wound healing process. These interventions can improve burn wound management and promote better outcomes.
