With a limited supply of organ donors and available organs for transplantation, the aim of
tissue engineering with three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting technology is to construct fully …

Current clinical treatment strategies for the bypassing of small diameter (< 6 mm) blood
vessels in the management of cardiovascular disease frequently fail due to a lack of suitable …

Engineering hierarchical vasculatures is critical for creating implantable functional thick
tissues. Current approaches focus on fabricating mesoscale vessels for implantation or …

The field of tissue engineering continues to advance, sometimes in exponential leaps
forward, but also sometimes at a rate that does not fulfill the promise that the field imagined a …

From microscaled capillaries to millimeter‐sized vessels, human vasculature spans multiple
scales and cell types. The convergence of bioengineering, materials science, and stem cell …

Vascular tissue engineering has made prodigious progress in recent years by converging
multidisciplinary approaches. Latest technological advancements foster the development of …

The developmental origin of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) has been increasingly
recognized as a major determinant for regional susceptibility or resistance to vascular …

Printing human tissues and organs replete with biomimetic vascular networks is of growing
interest. While it is possible to embed perfusable channels within acellular and densely …

Pathologies related to the cardiovascular system are the leading causes of death worldwide.
One of the main treatments is conventional surgery with autologous transplants. Although …

In human vascular anatomy, blood flows from the heart to organs and tissues through a
hierarchical vascular tree, comprising large arteries that branch into arterioles and further …
