Cell and Collagen Compositions for Engineered Cardiac Tissues for Regeneration

Cell and Collagen Compositions for Engineered Cardiac Tissues for Regeneration Overview During a heart attack it is estimated that 1 billion cardiomyocytes (i.e. heart muscle cells) are killed. Unlike other organs in the body, the heart has a limited capacity to regenerate. This means that the cardiomyocytes lost during a heart attack are replaced...

Mid-scale vessels in engineered tissue for regeneration

Overview Vascularization is a primary concern when developing implantable cardiac tissues, as it is critical for superior engraftment and integration. We have developed a method for engineering a vascular supply for engineered human myocardium to ensure tissue survival and engraftment upon implantation and improve therapeutic efficacy. Market Opportunity Myocardial...
