Towards the endothelialisation of tissue engineered heart valves : potential of endothelial progenitor cells
2018-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Background: Currently used replacements to treat heart valve disease are associated with drawbacks that limit their function in the long term. These drawbacks have been linked to the inability of such substitutes to remodel in response to the surrounding environment, due to the absence of viable cells in their composition. In situ tissue engineering of heart valves provides a promise to resolve these limitations....
