The extracellular matrix as a biologic scaffold for tissue engineering
● To understand the composition and organization of extracellular matrix (ECM) in tissues and organs ● To recognize the utility of scaffolds derived from ECM in the field of tissue engineering ● To comprehend the importance of mechanical behavior and mechanical design in the use of ECM scaffolds for tissue repair ● To identify the process by which ECM scaffolds are produced ● To understand some...
متن کاملExtracellular matrix scaffold for cardiac repair.
BACKGROUND Heart failure remains a significant problem. Tissue-engineered cardiac patches offer potential to treat severe heart failure. We studied an extracellular matrix scaffold for repairing the infarcted left ventricle. METHODS AND RESULTS Pigs (n=42) underwent left ventricular (LV) infarction. At 6 to 8 weeks, either 4-layer multilaminate urinary bladder-derived extracellular matrix or ...
متن کاملReinforcement of a decellularized extracellular matrix-derived hydrogel using nanofibers for cardiac tissue engineering
The role of heart disease in increasing worldwide death and the limited availability of organs for transplantation have encouraged multiple strategies to fabricate functional and implantable constructs. One of these strategies is to develop a biologically similar heart tissue scaffold, in which two types of fiber and hydrogel are commonly used. Toward this goal, taking advantage of both hydroge...

متن کاملDesign of a bioartificial pancreas(+).
INTRODUCTION In type 1 diabetes, the β-cells that secrete insulin have been destroyed such that daily exogenous insulin administration is required for the control of blood glucose in individuals with the disease. After the development of reliable techniques for the isolation of islets from the human pancreas, islet transplantation has emerged as a therapeutic option, albeit for only a few selec...
