De la banque de tissus à l'établissement tissulaire.

From the tissue bank to the tissue establishment.

Résumé

A review of changes in a role of a tissue bank in assuring clinical cell and tissue transplantation is presented. At the beginning the tissue bank was regarded a place to which the tissue collected by a surgeon was put until its use, mostly by the same physician. The role of a tissue bank was only to extend as much as possible the shelf life of the preserved tissue. Later the tissue banks started to introduce methods modifying the properties of the original tissue with the aim to lower its immunogenicity as well as to enhance or to prevent tissue rebuilding after transplantation. The chance to overcome the tissue rejection was enlarged after introducing methods combining the autologous cultured cells, e.g. epithelial keratinocytes with allogeneic or biosynthetic matrices. For a long period of time the activities of cell and tissue banks were not regulated by law, only the standards of voluntary organizations of tissue bankers have been available. The term tissue establishment was introduced by the Directive of the European Parliament and Council issued in 2004, that put high requirements on the safety and quality of the cell and tissue processing and banking procedures. The authors demonstrate the results of their effort to meeting these requirements at their workplace, the Tissue Bank of the University Hospital, Hradec Králové.
