Isolating Extracellular Matrix by Liver Decellularization
INTRODUCTION Liver Fibrosis is the 12th most leading cause of the death in the United States and 45% of all deaths in the developing world are caused by a fibrotic disease. [1] With the increase rate in fibrotic disease, there is an increased need for transplants which is exceeding the number of donors available. Fibrosis in the liver remains silent until it reaches the stage of liver failure, ...
متن کاملBiologic scaffold composed of skeletal muscle extracellular matrix.
Biologic scaffolds prepared from the extracellular matrix (ECM) of decellularized mammalian tissues have been shown to facilitate constructive remodeling in injured tissues such as skeletal muscle, the esophagus, and lower urinary tract, among others. The ECM of every tissue has a unique composition and structure that likely has direct effects on the host response and it is plausible that ECM h...
متن کاملMarrow-derived cells populate scaffolds composed of xenogeneic extracellular matrix.
INTRODUCTION The source of cells that participate in wound repair directly affects outcome. The extracellular matrix (ECM) and other acellular biomaterials have been used as therapeutic scaffolds for cell attachment and proliferation and as templates for tissue repair. The ECM consists of structural and functional proteins that influence cell attachment, gene expression patterns, and the differ...
متن کاملViscoelastic Behavior of Allografts and Scaffolds Composed of Extracellular Matrices
Collagen fibers form the basic structural components of the extracellular matrix (ECM) of vertebrates that serve to: store elastic energy during muscular deformation, transmit stored energy into joint movement, and transfer excess energy from the joint back to the attached muscles for dissipation [1]. They also act as mechanotransducers by transferring stress borne by the musculoskeleton to the...
متن کاملThe basement membrane component of biologic scaffolds derived from extracellular matrix.
The extracellular matrix (ECM) has been successfully used as a scaffold for constructive remodeling of multiple tissues in both preclinical studies and in human clinical applications. The basement membrane is a specialized form of the ECM that supports and facilitates the growth of epithelial cell populations. The morphology and the molecular composition of the ECM, including the basement membr...
