Development of a vitrification method for preserving human myoblast cell sheets for myocardial regeneration therapy

Abstract Background Tissue-engineered cardiac constructs have potential in the functional recovery of heart failure; however, the preservation of these constructs is crucial for the development and widespread application of this treatment. We hypothesized that tissue-engineered skeletal myoblast (SM...
