چکیده
In the present study, biocompatibility of native, acellular, 1,4-butanediol diglycidylether and 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethyl aminopropyl carbodiimide (EDC) cross-linked acellular aortic grafts was evaluated following subcutaneous implantation in guinea pigs. Biocompatibility was evaluated based on macroscopic, histopathological observations and immune responses elicited by the implanted grafts. Results showed that macroscopically, no abnormal cellular reaction was observed at the host-graft junction in any of the implanted animals. Histopathological observations revealed that the inflammatory response was mild during first 15 days post-implantation and increased at 30 days post-implantation in acellular and cross-linked tissues. By day 60, marked ingrowth of host tissue was observed in EDC cross-linked acellular aortic grafts. ELISA and lymphocyte proliferation assay revealed that animals implanted with EDC grafts showed least immune response when compared to others. Therefore, it was concluded that EDC cross-linked acellular aortic grafts were more compatible and had better handling qualities than the other cross-linked grafts.

Introduction Acellular corneal matrix, with its fine biocompatibility and strength for suturing, are being developed to replace part or full thickness of diseased corneas[1]. The bioactivity of acellular corneal matrix can be modified to the purpose of permitting host tissue regeneration. AECs innoculation may produce a mimetic model of corneal epithelium, which could promote outgrowth of cells...

To determine whether the use of multiple layers of acellular bladder matrix (ABM) is more suitable for the treatment of abdominal wall hernia than a single layered ABM. The feasibility, biocompatibility and mechanical properties of both materials were assessed and compared. Biocompatibility testing was performed on 4 and 1 layered ABM. The matrices were used to repair an abdominal hernia model ...
