Composite scaffold provides a cell delivery platform for cardiovascular repair.
Control over cell engraftment, survival, and function remains critical for heart repair. We have established a tissue engineering platform for the delivery of human mesenchymal progenitor cells (MPCs) by a fully biological composite scaffold. Specifically, we developed a method for complete decellularization of human myocardium that leaves intact most elements of the extracellular matrix, as we...
متن کاملDendrimer - a Novel Scaffold for Drug Delivery
A dendrimer described as a macromolecule characterized by its highly branched 3D structure which provides a high degree of surface functionality and versatility. Dendrimers also referred to as the “Polymers of the 21 century.” Dendrimers components, namely (1) an initiator core (2) Interior layers (generations) composed of repeating units, radically attached to the interior core. (3) Exterior (...
متن کاملComposite Scaffold of Poly(Vinyl Alcohol) and Interfacial Polyelectrolyte Complexation Fibers for Controlled Biomolecule Delivery
Controlled delivery of hydrophilic proteins is an important therapeutic strategy. However, widely used methods for protein delivery suffer from low incorporation efficiency and loss of bioactivity. The versatile interfacial polyelectrolyte complexation (IPC) fibers have the capacity for precise spatiotemporal release and protection of protein, growth factor, and cell bioactivity. Yet its weak m...
متن کاملComposite Scaffold for Osteochondral Interface Tissue Engineering
INTRODUCTION: Osteoarthritis is the leading cause of physical disability among Americans, and tissue engineered osteochondral grafts have emerged as a promising treatment option for this debilitating condition. Currently, the formation of a stable interface between the cartilage and bone portions of the osteochondral graft remains a significant challenge[1]. Articular cartilage integrates with ...
متن کاملStratified scaffold design for engineering composite tissues.
A significant challenge to orthopaedic soft tissue repair is the biological fixation of autologous or allogeneic grafts with bone, whereby the lack of functional integration between such grafts and host bone has limited the clinical success of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and other common soft tissue-based reconstructive grafts. The inability of current surgical reconstruction to restore th...
