The Use of Tissue Engineering to Fabricate Perfusable 3D Brain Microvessels in vitro
Tissue engineering of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in vitro has been rapidly expanding to address the challenges of mimicking the native structure and function of the BBB. Most of these models utilize 2D conventional microfluidic techniques. However, 3D microvascular models offer the potential to m...
