Reconstruction of the Swine Pulmonary Artery Using a Graft Engineered With Syngeneic Cardiac Pericytes

Reconstruction of the Swine Pulmonary Artery Using a Graft Engineered With Syngeneic Cardiac Pericytes

The neonatal heart represents an attractive source of regenerative cells. Here, we report the results of a randomized, controlled, investigator-blinded preclinical study, which assessed the safety and effectiveness of a matrix graft cellularized with cardiac pericytes (CPs) in a piglet model of pulm...
