Manufacturing a Biomimetic Biorecator in Cardiac Tissue Engineering
Introduction: The direct approach of cardiac tissue engineering is to mimic the natural tissue of heart, considering the significant role of scaffolding and mechanical simulation. Methods: To achieve this purpose, a composite Polycaprolactone (PCL)/Gelatin electrospun scaffold with a ratio of 70:30 and with the most similarities to the cardiac extracellular matrix was fabricated with aligned ...
متن کاملOverview on Vascular Tissue Engineering: Progress and Challenges
Today, vascular diseases such as atherosclerosis are one of the leading causes of death in the world and the prevalence of it in older societies is rising. The current treatments for repair of cardiovascular function include organ transplantation, surgical reconstruction, mechanical or artificial devices, or the use of metabolic products. Although these methods are commonly used, they did not g...
متن کاملChallenges in Cartilage Tissue Engineering
Over 27 million Americans suffer from cartilage damage with several million people affected per year. Articular cartilage or hyaline cartilage has a limited capacity to heal after damage from injury or degenerative disease. In an attempt to delay the progression of widespread damage, orthopedic surgeons routinely treat osteochondral injuries with minimally invasive surgical procedures involving...
متن کاملTissue Engineering in Dentistery
Introduction Perforation of maxillary sinus mucous membrane is of the most prevalent complication during open sinus lift surgery. Moreover, such complication can usually be managed by an absorbable membrane. As far as absorbable membranes are concerned, decellularized maxillary sinus mucous membranes, which is an extracellular matrix, can be used as a biologic scaffold and insulating membrane ...
متن کاملEngineering Virtual Cardiac Tissue
The kinetics of proteins involved in ion transfer, sequestration and binding in cardiac cells can be modelled to construct a model of the electrical activity of isolated cardiac cells as a system of ordinary differential equations. These cell models may be incorporated into tissue models, which, when combined with histology and anatomy, form virtual tissues. The effects of changes in specific p...
