Rapid Endothelialization of Off-the-Shelf Small Diameter Silk Vascular Grafts

JACC: Basic to Translational Science, 2018
Synthetic vascular grafts for small diameter revascularization are lacking. Clinically available conduits expanded polytetrafluorethylene and Dacron fail acutely due to thrombosis and in the longer term from neointimal hyperplasia.

Intimal Hyperplasia in Vascular Grafts

European Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, 2000
Introduction reduce the development of IH. Also, the influence of haemodynamic forces like flow and shear stress on The first report of anastomotic intimal thickening after the development of IH has been investigated. High as well as low shear stress has been indicated as a caustransplantation of a vein into the arterial circulation was over 90 years ...

Self‐Healing Hydrogel‐Enabled Modular Assembly of Bilayered Skin Construct for Hair Follicle Regeneration

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Self‐healing assembly of two cell‐laden hydrogel layers creates a biomimetic skin construct that restores both dermal and epidermal functions, resulting in accelerated wound healing and enhanced hair follicle regeneration in a full‐thickness skin wound model. ABSTRACT Alopecia remains a pervasive clinical challenge, largely owing to the limited ability
