Evaluation of the patency rate and endothelialization of a poly-ε-caprolactone, nanofiber sheet-based vascular graft using a rat abdominal aortic implantation model.

Introduction: The global increase in cardiovascular diseases has resulted in an augmented development of artificial small-caliber vascular grafts used in bypass graft surgeries, such as coronary and distal artery bypass graft surgeries. However, no consensus exists regarding the best method for creating vascular grafts. Poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) is a biocompatible and biodegradable material that has been widely studied as a scaffold for tissue regeneration, inclusive of vascular grafts.

Red propolis extract associated to platelet-rich plasma and stromal cells with focus in cell therapy and functional tissue regeneration.

The use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and adipose-derived stromal cells (ADSC) have been investigated as a form of wound healing enhancement. The objective of this work was to evaluate the association of red propolis (RP) and PRP as inducers of ADSC for application in tissue regeneration. Adipose tissue post-collection and post-cryopreservation was isolated with type II collagenase, characterized by flow cytometry, and differentiated into osteogenic, chondrogenic and adipose cell.

Secretome of stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED) and its extracellular vesicles improves keratinocytes migration, viability, and attenuation of H O -induced cytotoxicity.

Therapies for wound healing using the secretome and extracellular vesicles (EVs) of mesenchymal stem/stromal cells have been shown to be successful in preclinical studies. This study aimed to characterise the protein content of the secretome from stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED) and analyse the in vitro effects of SHED-conditioned medium (SHED-CM) and SHED extracellular vesicles (SHED-EVs) on keratinocytes. EVs were isolated and characterised.

Production of a Bioink Containing Decellularized Spinal Cord Tissue for 3D Bioprinting.

For the past few years, three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting has emerged as a promising approach in the field of regenerative medicine. This technique allows for the production of 3D scaffolds to support cell transplantation due to its ability to mimic the extracellular environment. One alternative to enhancing cell adhesion, survival, and proliferation is the use of decellularized extracellular matrix as a bioink component.

Cell Electrospinning: a Review of Materials and Methodologies for Biofabrication.

The process of electrohydrodynamic living cell microencapsulation inside a scaffold during the electrospinning (ES) process is called cell electrospinning (CE). Several studies demonstrate the feasibility of using cell electrospinning for biomedical applications, allowing for the direct biofabrication of living cells to be encapsulated in fibers for the formation of active biological scaffolds. In this review, a comprehensive overview of the materials and methodologies used in cell electrospinning, as well as their biomedical application in tissue engineering, is provided.
