Gelatin/hyaluronic acid nanofibrous scaffolds: biomimetics of extracellular matrix.
In living systems, extracellular matrix (ECM) plays a pivotal role in controlling cell behavior [1]. One of the most significant objectives in tissue engineering is to design and obtain scaffolds with the ability of biomimicking natural ECM in chemical compositions, physical structure, and biological functions [2,3]. Natural ECM is composed of a cross-linked porous network of multifibril collag...
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 کاملCrosslinking strategies for preparation of extracellular matrix-derived cardiovascular scaffolds.
Heart valve and blood vessel replacement using artificial prostheses is an effective strategy for the treatment of cardiovascular disease at terminal stage. Natural extracellular matrix (ECM)-derived materials (decellularized allogeneic or xenogenic tissues) have received extensive attention as the cardiovascular scaffold. However, the bioprosthetic grafts usually far less durable and undergo c...
متن کاملFabrication of porous extracellular matrix scaffolds from human adipose tissue.
Adipose tissue is found over the whole body and easily obtained in large quantities with minimal risk by a common surgical operation, liposuction. Although liposuction was originally intended for the removal of undesired adipose tissue, it may provide an ideal material for tissue engineering scaffolds. Here we present novel, porous scaffolds prepared from human adipose tissues. The scaffolds we...
متن کاملa study on cell surface glycoconjugate and extracellular matrix in development of cornea
introduction: the cell surface glycoconjugate and extracellular matrix may mediate extracellular signals which decide the fate of the cells during tissue interactions. the proper development of cornea needs cellular interaction between surface epithelium, neural crest and developing lens. materials and methods: 50 pregnant rats were chosen and the embryos from pernatal day11-to 20 and postnatal...
