“…This method leads to constructing a 3D scaffold biomaterial integrated with cells and/or factors, which ultimately becomes a promising tool for restoring or replacing the function of a damaged organ or tissue (Liu et al, 2007). Recently, ECM derived from decellularized tissue has been adopted as a promising strategy to enable 3D tissue formation in a variety of porcine organs such as cartilage (Shen et al, 2020), urethra (Simões et al, 2017), lumbar spine (Wu et al, 2017), heart (Zhou et al, 2010), liver and kidney (Wang et al, 2015), and a few bovine organs like ovaries (Nikniaz et al, 2021), spine (Yu et al, 2020), trabecular bone (Shridhar et al, 2019), liver (Ergun et al, 2022) and lungs (Kuşoğlu et al, 2023). These decellularized tissues have successfully retained the ultrastructure as well as organ-specific microenvironmental elements, such as natural ECM proteins and growth factors, which are responsible for cell adhesion and proliferation.…”
