Advances in tissue engineering.

Journal of pediatric surgery

Langer R, Vacanti J.
PMID: 26711689
J Pediatr Surg. 2016 Jan;51(1):8-12. doi: 10.1016/j.jpedsurg.2015.10.022. Epub 2015 Nov 10.

Nearly 30 years ago, we reported on a concept now known as Tissue Engineering. Here, we report on some of the advances in this now thriving area of research. In particular, significant advances in tissue engineering of skin, liver,...

Confidence intervals for the encircled energy fraction and the half-energy width.

Applied optics

Vacanti G.
PMID: 26837027
Appl Opt. 2015 Dec 20;54(36):10619-22. doi: 10.1364/AO.54.010619.

The encircled energy fraction and its quantiles, notably the half-energy width, are routinely used to characterize the quality of x-ray optical systems. They are, however, always quoted without a statistical error. We show how nonparametric statistical methods can be...

Tissue engineering lamb heart valve leaflets.

Biotechnology and bioengineering

Breuer CK, Shin'oka T, Tanel RE, Zund G, Mooney DJ, Ma PX, Miura T, Colan S, Langer R, Mayer JE, Vacanti JP.
PMID: 18627019
Biotechnol Bioeng. 1996 Jun 05;50(5):562-7. doi: 10.1002/(SICI)1097-0290(19960605)50:5<562::AID-BIT11>3.0.CO;2-L.

Tissue engineered lamb heart valve leaflets (N - 3) were constructed by repeatedly seeding a concentrated suspension of autologous myofibroblasts onto a biodegradable synthetic polymeric scaffold composed of fibers made from polyglycolic acid and polylactic acid. Over a 2-week...

Engineering new tissue: formation of neo-cartilage.

Tissue engineering

Paige KT, Vacanti CA.
PMID: 19877919
Tissue Eng. 1995;1(2):97-106. doi: 10.1089/ten.1995.1.97.

One approach to tissue-engineering combines isolated cells with polymer scaffolds for the purpose of generating new tissue or tissue equivalents. It has met with much success when applied to the formation of new cartilage (neo-cartilage). In this review, we...

Functional Viability of Chondrocytes Stored at 4 degrees C.

Tissue engineering

Kim W, Vacanti JP, Mooney D, Upton J, Ibarra C, Vacanti CA.
PMID: 19877953
Tissue Eng. 1996;2(1):75-81. doi: 10.1089/ten.1996.2.75.

Little is known about the survival and function of chondrocytes when stored as a suspension at different temperatures. We compared the functional viability of chondrocytes stored in suspension at room temperature to those stored at 4 degrees C in...

Preparation and use of thermosensitive polymers.

Methods in molecular medicine

Cao YL, Ibarra C, Vacanti C.
PMID: 21370169
Methods Mol Med. 1999;18:75-83. doi: 10.1385/0-89603-516-6:75.

Restoration of organ structure and function, utilizing tissue engineering technologies, often requires the use of a temporary porous scaffold. The function of the scaffold is to direct the growth of cells migrating from the surrounding tissue (tissue conduction), or...

Tissue engineering: The first decade and beyond.

Journal of cellular biochemistry

Bonassar LJ, Vacanti CA.
PMID: 29345838
J Cell Biochem. 1998;72:297-303. doi: 10.1002/(SICI)1097-4644(1998)72:30/31+<297::AID-JCB36>3.0.CO;2-6.

This article reviews the important developments in the field of tissue engineering over the last 10 years. Research in the area of biomaterials is examined from the perspective of providing the foundation for the development of tissue engineering. Early...

A bilayer small diameter .

Biomicrofluidics

Hoganson DM, Finkelstein EB, Owens GE, Hsiao JC, Eng KY, Kulig KM, Kim ES, Kniazeva T, Pomerantseva I, Neville CM, Turk JR, Fermini B, Borenstein JT, Vacanti JP.
PMID: 27795748
Biomicrofluidics. 2016 Oct 12;10(5):054116. doi: 10.1063/1.4964814. eCollection 2016 Sep.

In pre-clinical safety studies, drug-induced vascular injury (DIVI) is defined as an adverse response to a drug characterized by degenerative and hyperplastic changes of endothelial cells and vascular smooth muscle cells. Inflammation may also be seen, along with extravasation...

Prevascularization of porous biodegradable polymers.

Biotechnology and bioengineering

Mikos AG, Sarakinos G, Lyman MD, Ingber DE, Vacanti JP, Langer R.
PMID: 18613104
Biotechnol Bioeng. 1993 Sep 05;42(6):716-23. doi: 10.1002/bit.260420606.

Highly porous biocompatible and biodegradable polymers in the form of cylindrical disks of 13.5 mm diameter were implanted in the mesentery of male syngeneic Fischer rats for a period of 35 days to study the dynamics of tissue ingrowth...

Hepatocyte transplantation in Swine using prevascularized polyvinyl alcohol sponges.

Tissue engineering

Takeda T, Murphy S, Uyama S, Organ GM, Schloo BL, Vacanti JP.
PMID: 19877904
Tissue Eng. 1995;1(3):253-62. doi: 10.1089/ten.1995.1.253.

Hepatocyte transplantation shows promise as therapy to support liver function. We have shown that hepatocytes can be transplanted into prevascularized synthetic polymers in rat models. While there are many studies in rats showing the benefits of hepatocyte transplantation, there...
