Tissue-Engineered Cardiac Constructs for Cardiac Repair
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2011Several recent basic research studies have described surgical methods for cardiac repair using tissue cardiomyoplasty. This review summarizes recent advances in cardiac repair using bioengineered tissue from the viewpoint of the cardiac surgeon. We conclude that the results of many basic and preclinical studies indicate that bioengineered tissue can be

Electroconductive biomaterials for cardiac tissue engineering
Acta Biomaterialia, 2022Myocardial infarction (MI) is still the leading cause of mortality worldwide. The success of cell-based therapies and tissue engineering strategies for treatment of injured myocardium have been notably hindered due to the limitations associated with the selection of a proper cell source, lack of engraftment of engineered tissues and biomaterials with ...

Cardiac muscle tissue engineering
IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Magazine, 2003Cell-based therapy has emerged as a novel approach for replacing heart muscle, which is known not to regenerate after injury such as that caused by infarction or reconstructive surgery. Two types of cell-based therapies have been employed: injection of isolated cells or the implantation of in-vitro-grown cardiac muscle tissue equivalents In the first ...

Scaffolds for tissue engineering of cardiac valves
Acta Biomaterialia, 2014Tissue engineered heart valves offer a promising alternative for the replacement of diseased heart valves avoiding the limitations faced with currently available bioprosthetic and mechanical heart valves. In the paradigm of tissue engineering, a three-dimensional platform - the so-called scaffold - is essential for cell proliferation, growth and ...

Cardiac Tissue Engineering for Replacement Therapy
Heart Failure Reviews, 2003Cell therapy is a new concept to repair diseased organs. For patients with myocardial infarction, heart failure, and congenital heart diseases cell based therapies might represent a potential cure. The field can be subdivided into two principally different approaches: (1) Implantation of isolated cells and (2) implantation of in vitro engineered tissue

Fibrin as a scaffold for cardiac tissue engineering
Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, 2011AbstractFibrin is a natural biopolymer with many interesting properties, such as biocompatibility, bioresorbability, ease of processing, ability to be tailored to modify the conditions of polymerization, and potential for incorporation of both cells and cell mediators.

Biofabrication strategies for cardiac tissue engineering
Current Opinion in BiotechnologyBiofabrication technologies hold the potential to provide high-throughput, easy-to-operate, and cost-effective systems that recapitulate complexities of the native heart. The size of the fabricated model, printing resolution, biocompatibility, and ease-of-fabrication are some of the major parameters that can be improved to develop more sophisticated ...
