Endothelial cell seeding.
Endothelial cell seeding is a technique that has developed over the past 15 years in response to the need for a high performance synthetic vascular graft. This review details our present knowledge of seeding and examines the various problems that have hampered its introduction into clinical practice.
متن کاملEndothelial cell seeding of polymeric vascular grafts.
Pioneers in the field of small diameter graft development sought to promote graft endothelialization and, thereby, increase patency by transplanting a varying degree of autologous endothelial cells onto vascular grafts prior to implantation. This process has become known as endothelial cell seeding. The underlying hypothesis is quite simple; that is, by promoting the establishment of the patien...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Rotation Device for Microvascular Endothelial Cell Seeding
A rotation device (RD) specifically designed to achieve sterile endothelial cell (EC) seeding of vascular grafts has been developed. The basic characteristics of the RD include: small dimensions , fully autoclavable components, and perfectly sealed graft holders. These features make it possible to maintain sterility during all the steps of EC seeding. This was documented by negativity of all ba...
متن کاملStem Cell Therapy: the ethical issues
The ability to culture human stem cells long term, and possibly indefinitely, and to control how such cells specialise to form the different tissues of the body offers the possibility of major advances in healthcare. Stem cells have been isolated and cultured, but a great deal of research is required to develop cell lines which can generate replacement cells and tissues to treat many diseases.S...
متن کاملReporting the Effect of Cell Seeding Density on Growth Pattern of Cancer Cell Lines
In vitro studies on cancer cell lines still constitutes a major part of cancer research. It is very important that the researchers consider the importance of basic conditions of working with different cell lines. To the best of authors knowledge, this study is the first one to report the effect of seeding density on the growth curve of three human cancer cell lines. These cell lines include hum...
