We previously showed decellularized fish swim bladder can be used as vascular patch and tube graft in rats, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have showed the capability to inhibit neointimal hyperplasia in different animal models. We hypothesized that decellularized fish swim bladder patch loaded with MSCs (bioinspired patch) can inhibit neointimal hyperplasia in a rat aortic patch angioplasty model. Rat MSCs were grown in vitro and flow cytometry was used to confirm their quality.

We recently showed that a decellularized leaf scaffold can be loaded with polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA)-based rapamycin nanoparticles, this leaf patch can then inhibit venous neointimal hyperplasia in a rat inferior vena cava (IVC) venoplasty model. IL-33 plays a role in the neointimal formation after vascular injury. We hypothesized that plant leaves can absorb therapeutic drug solution and can be used as a patch with drug delivery capability, and plant leaves absorbed with IL-33 antibody can decrease venous neointimal hyperplasia in the rat IVC venoplasty model.
