Chorion-derived extracellular matrix hydrogel and fibronectin surface coatings show similar beneficial effects on endothelialization of expanded polytetrafluorethylene vascular grafts

The endothelium plays an important regulatory role for cardiovascular homeostasis. Rapid endothelialization of small diameter vascular grafts (SDVGs) is crucial to ensure long-term patency. Here, we assessed a human placental chorionic extracellular matrix hydrogel (hpcECM-gel) as coating material a...
