Tissue engineered prefabricated vascularized flaps.
UNLABELLED BACKGROUND.: Microvascular free tissue transfer has become increasingly popular in the reconstruction of head and neck defects, but it also has its disadvantages. Tissue engineering allows the generation of neo-tissue for implantation, but these tissues are often avascular. We propose to combine tissue-engineering techniques together with flap prefabrication techniques to generate a ...
متن کاملPercutaneous pulmonary valve replacement: autologous tissue-engineered valved stents.
AIMS Percutaneous implantation has already been used clinically and is a great option for treating young patients. The use of autologous tissue-engineered valved stents might solve the problem of degeneration and limited durability of biological heart valves. METHODS AND RESULTS Porcine pulmonary heart valves and small intestinal submucosa were obtained from a slaughterhouse. The intestinal s...
متن کاملVascularized subcutaneous human liver tissue from engineered hepatocyte/fibroblast sheets in mice.
Subcutaneous liver tissue engineering is an attractive and minimally invasive approach used to curative treat hepatic failure and inherited liver diseases. However, graft failure occurs frequently due to insufficient infiltration of blood vessels (neoangiogenesis), while the maintenance of hepatocyte phenotype and function requires in vivo development of the complex cellular organization of the...
متن کاملCorrection: Mandibular reconstruction using an axially vascularized tissue-engineered construct
Correction After publication of this work [1], the authors noted that there were some corrections that should be added to the work. These corrections are done in order to modify some parts that were unfortunately missed during the original publishing procedures. The authors would like to apologize for the inconvenience. Page 2 in the Methods section under “Mechanical loading studies and design ...
متن کاملVascularized Tissue-Engineered Model for Studying Drug Resistance in Neuroblastoma
Neuroblastoma is a vascularized pediatric tumor derived from neural crest stem cells that displays vasculogenic mimicry and can express a number of stemness markers, such as SOX2 and NANOG. Tumor relapse is the major cause of succumbing to this disease, and properties attributed to cancer stem-like cells (CSLC), such as drug-resistance and cell plasticity, seem to be the key mechanisms. However...
