Tissue engineering of heart valves in vitro experiences free
heart valve scaffold from a porous polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA), which was seeded with vascular cells from adult ovine arteries and placed into a pulsatile ow system to induce in vitro neotissue formation for tissueengineered heart valves. This study was designed to evaluate a new scaffold for tissue engineering of heart valves as well as
Potential applications of tissue engineering in regenerative medicine range from structural tissues to organs with complex function. This review focuses on the engineering of heart valve tissue, a goal which involves a unique combination of biological, engineering, and technological hurdles.
Tissueengineered heart valves have been proposed by physicians and scientists alike to be the ultimate solution for treating valvular heart disease. Rather than replacing a diseased or defective native valve with a mechanical or animal tissuederived artificial valve, a tissueengineered valve would be a living organ, able to respond to growth and physiological forces in the same way that
Growing heart valves In Vitro Jake Matte, Biomedical Engineering, University of Rhode Island BME 281 First Presentation, November 16, 2016 AbstractEvery year, approximately 5 million Americans are diagnosed every year with some form of heart valve disease, which can be fatal.
