Engineered Human Cardiac Tissue [PDF]

open access: yesPediatric Cardiology, 2011
The human heart is the first organ to develop during embryogenesis and is arguably the most essential organ for life. However, after birth, the heart has very little capacity to repair malformations such as congenital heart defects or to regenerate after an injury such as myocardial infarction.

Nanoengineering in Cardiac Regeneration: Looking Back and Going Forward

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2020
To deliver on the promise of cardiac regeneration, an integration process between an emerging field, nanomedicine, and a more consolidated one, tissue engineering, has begun.

Biomimetic Cardiac Tissue Models for In Vitro Arrhythmia Studies

open access: yesBiomimetics, 2023
Cardiac arrhythmias are a major cause of cardiovascular mortality worldwide. Many arrhythmias are caused by reentry, a phenomenon where excitation waves circulate in the heart.

Chitosan as Functional Biomaterial for Designing Delivery Systems in Cardiac Therapies

open access: yesGels, 2021
Cardiovascular diseases are a leading cause of mortality across the globe, and transplant surgeries are not always successful since it is not always possible to replace most of the damaged heart tissues, for example in myocardial infarction.

Mechanostimulation Protocols for Cardiac Tissue Engineering [PDF]

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2013
Owing to the inability of self-replacement by a damaged myocardium, alternative strategies to heart transplantation have been explored within the last decades and cardiac tissue engineering/regenerative medicine is among the present challenges in biomedical research.

Design and Fabrication of Three-Dimensional Scaffolds for Tissue Engineering of Human Heart Valves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We developed a new fabrication technique for 3-dimensional scaffolds for tissue engineering of human heart valve tissue. A human aortic homograft was scanned with an X-ray computer tomograph.

The homopolymer, poly(3-hydroxyoctanoate), P(3HO), as a matrix material for soft tissue engineering [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The homopolymer poly(3-hydroxyoctanoate), P(3HO) produced from Pseudomonas mendocina using octanoate as carbon feed was studied as a potential biomaterial for soft tissue engineering i.e. as cardiac patch and as matrices for skin tissue engineering.

Development of methods for the tissue engineering of cardiac valves using mesenchymal stem cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Cardiac valve replacement is the second most common heart operation in the Western World. Valve replacements currently available are poorly adapted for use in young patients who typically require multiple re-operations as they grow, resulting in ...
