Channeled ECM-Based Nanofibrous Hydrogel for Engineering Vascularized Cardiac Tissues

Hydrogels are widely used materials for cardiac tissue engineering. However, once the cells are encapsulated within hydrogels, mass transfer to the core of the engineered tissue is limited, and cell viability is compromised. Here, we report on the development of a channeled ECM-based nanofibrous hyd...
