Breast Tissue Engineering: Decellularized Scaffolds Derived from Porcine Mammary Glands.

چکیده
Introduction: Decellularization of tissues provides inductive extra-cellular matrices (ECM) for effective organ reconstruction: this promising approach has not been translated to breast reconstruction yet. 1, 2 We investigated the effectiveness of different decellularization protocols applied to porcine mammary glands with the purpose of developing an inductive biological matrix for prospective breast tissue engineering.

Preparation of decellularized three dimentional scaffolds as the model for tissue engineering and their functional assessments in vitro application of blastema tissue
Tissue engineering is based on three main factors including scaffolds, cells and growth factors. Natural scaffolds derived from decellularized tissues and organs have been successfully used in tissue engineering. Decellularization studies have shown that natural scaffolds which maintaine their main structure and properties could be a suitable tool for studying cellular behaviors and preparation...
متن کاملTissue engineering of heart valves: decellularized porcine and human valve scaffolds differ importantly in residual potential to attract monocytic cells.
BACKGROUND Tissue-engineered or decellularized heart valves have already been implanted in humans or are currently approaching the clinical setting. The aim of this study was to examine the migratory response of human monocytic cells toward decellularized porcine and human heart valves, a pivotal step in the early immunologic reaction. METHODS AND RESULTS Porcine and human pulmonary valve con...
متن کاملCharacterization of natural, decellularized and reseeded porcine tooth bud matrices.
Dental tissue engineering efforts have yet to identify scaffolds that instruct the formation of bioengineered teeth of predetermined size and shape. Here we investigated whether extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules present in natural tooth scaffolds can provide insight on how to achieve this goal. We describe methods to effectively decellularize and demineralize porcine molar tooth buds, while ...
متن کاملDecellularization of human and porcine lung tissues for pulmonary tissue engineering.
BACKGROUND The only definitive treatment for end-stage organ failure is orthotopic transplantation. Lung extracellular matrix (LECM) holds great potential as a scaffold for lung tissue engineering because it retains the complex architecture, biomechanics, and topologic specificity of the lung. Decellularization of human lungs rejected from transplantation could provide "ideal" biologic scaffold...
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...
