Cardiac tissue engineering [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2005
We hypothesized that clinically sized (1-5 mm thick),compact cardiac constructs containing physiologically high density of viable cells (≈108 cells/cm3) can be engineered in vitro by using biomimetic culture systems capable of providing oxygen transport ...

Engineered cardiac tissues [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Biotechnology, 2011
Cardiac tissue engineering offers the promise of creating functional tissue replacements for use in the failing heart or for in vitro drug screening. The last decade has seen a great deal of progress in this field with new advances in interdisciplinary areas such as developmental biology, genetic engineering, biomaterials, polymer science, bioreactor ...

Cardiac Tissue Engineering [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Nursing, 2009
The first 2 reviews in this series have described the defining properties of stem cells, their possible sources, and some initial attempts at their clinical use for tissue regeneration and repair. This third and final article in the series describes bioengineering methods for building physical structures to contain and organize implanted cells.

Engineering virtual cardiac tissue [PDF]

open access: yesBriefings in Bioinformatics, 2001
The kinetics of proteins involved in ion transfer, sequestration and binding in cardiac cells can be modelled to construct a model of the electrical activity of isolated cardiac cells as a system of ordinary differential equations. These cell models may be incorporated into tissue models, which, when combined with histology and anatomy, form virtual ...

Advances in Cardiac Tissue Engineering

open access: yesBioengineering, 2022
Tissue engineering has paved the way for the development of artificial human cardiac muscle patches (hCMPs) and cardiac tissue analogs, especially for treating Myocardial infarction (MI), often by increasing its regenerative abilities. Low engraftment rates, insufficient clinical application scalability, and the creation of a functional vascular system

Antioxidant Activity of Vitamin C against LPS-Induced Septic Cardiomyopathy by Down-Regulation of Oxidative Stress and Inflammation

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology, 2022
In severe cases of sepsis, endotoxin-induced cardiomyopathy can cause major damage to the heart. This study was designed to see if Vitamin C (Vit C) could prevent lipopolysaccharide-induced heart damage.

Nanomaterials for Cardiac Tissue Engineering [PDF]

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
End stage heart failure is a major cause of death in the US. At present, organ transplant and left-ventricular assist devices remain the only viable treatments for these patients. Cardiac tissue engineering presents the possibility of a new option. Nanomaterials such as gold nanorods (AuNRs) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) present unique properties that ...
