Challenges in Cardiac Tissue Engineering [PDF]
Tissue Engineering Part B: Reviews, 2010 Cardiac tissue engineering aims to create functional tissue constructs that can reestablish the structure and function of injured myocardium. Engineered constructs can also serve as high-fidelity models for studies of cardiac development and disease. In a general case, the biological potential of the cell-the actual "tissue engineer"-is mobilized by ...

Electrospun Acellular Heart ECM for Cardiac Tissue Engineering [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Chemical Engineering, 2021 Electrospun nanofiber is one of the promising alternatives for use in tissue engineering and drug delivery due to its controllable characteristics. However, choosing an appropriate biomaterial for a specific tissue regeneration plays a significant role ...

An engineered cardiac reporter cell line identifies human embryonic stem cell-derived myocardial precursors. [PDF]
, 2011 Unlike some organs, the heart is unable to repair itself after injury. Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) grow and divide indefinitely while maintaining the potential to develop into many tissues of the body.

Computational fluid dynamic analysis of bioprinted self-supporting perfused tissue models [PDF]
, 2020 Natural tissues are incorporated with vasculature, which is further integrated with a cardiovascular system responsible for driving perfusion of nutrient‐rich oxygenated blood through the vasculature to support cell metabolism within most cell‐dense ...

Cardiac Tissue Engineering for the Treatment of Myocardial Infarction
Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2021 Poor cell engraftment rate is one of the primary factors limiting the effectiveness of cell transfer therapy for cardiac repair. Recent studies have shown that the combination of cell-based therapy and tissue engineering technology can improve stem cell ...

Virtual cardiac monolayers for electrical wave propagation [PDF]
, 2017 The complex structure of cardiac tissue is considered to be one of the main determinants of an arrhythmogenic substrate. This study is aimed at developing the first mathematical model to describe the formation of cardiac tissue, using a joint in silico ...
