Biomaterials have played an increasingly prominent role in the success of biomedical
devices and in the development of tissue engineering, which seeks to unlock the …

Myocardial 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 …

It is now becoming apparent that dynamic changes occur within the interstitium that directly
contribute to adverse myocardial remodeling following myocardial infarction (MI), with …

In this study, we examined the capacity of a biomimetic pullulan–collagen hydrogel to create
a functional biomaterial-based stem cell niche for the delivery of mesenchymal stem cells …

Myocardial tissue lacks the ability to significantly regenerate itself following a myocardial
infarction, thus tissue engineering strategies are required for repair. Several injectable …

Objective—Stem cell therapy for angiogenesis and vascular regeneration has been
investigated using adult or embryonic stem cells. In the present study, we investigated the …

BACKGROUND Stem cell research in the endometrium and myometrium from animal
models and humans has led to the identification of endometrial/myometrial stem cells and …

Myocardial tissue engineering, a concept that intends to overcome the obstacles to
prolonging patients' life after myocardial infarction, is continuously improving. It comprises a …

Rationale Perfusion decellularization of cadaveric hearts removes cells and generates a cell-
free extracellular matrix scaffold containing acellular vascular conduits, which are …

Abstract Poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)(PNIPAAm) hydrogel was a widely used carrier in
therapeutic agent delivery. However, its bioactivities for encapsulated cells were not …
