Design of a Composite Scaffold for Myocardial Regeneration Following Infarction
公开可下载的内容
open in viewerThe heart does not regenerate new tissue when myocardium dies following acute myocardial infarction. We have undertaken an iterative process to design and test a patch that will replace infarcted tissue and induce myocardial regeneration to improve heart function. The result is a composite scaffold design composed of an endocardial patch to provide mechanical stability and an injectable filler material to provide a regenerative scaffold environment. This project provides a vital first step toward a final solution for myocardial regeneration.
