Abstract excerpt
One major weakness that all cardiovascular replacements have in common is the lack of endothelial cell (EC) growth and post-implant remodeling of the device. The emerging field of tissue engineering focuses on the in vitro generation of functional organ replacements using living endothelial cells and other vascular cells for which nondegradable or biodegradable scaffold base materials are used. In this paper, it...
