Engineered composite fascia for stem cell therapy in tissue repair applications

Abstract: A critical challenge in tissue regeneration is to develop constructs that effectively integrate with the host tissue. Here, we describe a composite, laser micromachined, collagen-alginate construct containing human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) for tissue repair applications. Collagen type I was fashioned into laminated collagen sheets to form a mechanically robust fascia that was subsequently laser micropatterned with pores of defined dimension and spatial distribution as a means to modulate mechanical behav… Show more

“…Suture retention strength testing was done as previously described . Briefly, Prolene 4‐0 sutures were passed through 5 mm square samples, 2.5 mm from the patch edge and the suture fastened to the actuating arm of the DMTA pulled at a rate of 1 mm/s.…”
