Abstract excerpt
The repair and regeneration of tissues using tissue-engineered scaffolds represent the ultimate goal of regenerative medicine. Despite rapid developments in the field, urethral tissue engineering methods are still insufficient to replicate natural urethral tissue because the bioactivity of existing scaffolds is inefficient, especially for large tissue defects, which require large tissue-engineered scaffolds....
