Advancing cardiovascular tissue engineering
Cardiovascular tissue engineering offers the promise of biologically based repair of injured and damaged blood vessels, valves, and cardiac tissue. Major advances in cardiovascular tissue engineering over the past few years involve improved methods to promote the establishment and differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), scaffolds from decellularized tissue that may produce mo...
متن کاملBioresorbable Scaffolds for Cardiovascular Tissue Engineering
Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality, especially in developed countries. Currently, when suitable autologous tissue is lacking, mostly non-degradable synthetic material or fixated xenogeneic grafts (e.g. heart valves) are used to restore, repair, or replace the injured cardiovascular tissues. However, these materials are associated with several disadvantages, such ...
متن کاملTissue engineering therapy for cardiovascular diseases.
Cardiovascular Diseases To the Editor: We read with interest the review by Nugent and Edelman.1 The authors have discussed seeding of prosthetic vascular graft but have not commented on the difference between single-stage and two-stage seeding. Single-stage seeding involves extraction of endothelial cells (ECs), coating of graft lumen, and implanting the graft into the patient, all within the t...
متن کاملDecellularized matrices for cardiovascular tissue engineering.
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is one of the leading causes of death in the Western world. The replacement of damaged vessels and valves has been practiced since the 1950's. Synthetic grafts, usually made of bio-inert materials, are long-lasting and mechanically relevant, but fail when it comes to "biointegration". Decellularized matrices, instead, can be considered biological grafts capable of s...
متن کاملTissue engineering therapy for cardiovascular disease.
The present treatments for the loss or failure of cardiovascular function include organ transplantation, surgical reconstruction, mechanical or synthetic devices, or the administration of metabolic products. Although routinely used, these treatments are not without constraints and complications. The emerging and interdisciplinary field of tissue engineering has evolved to provide solutions to t...
