Regulation of smooth muscle cells using UV embossed microchannelled polymeric films
The reconstruction of a functional vascular tunica media, with circumferentially oriented contractile smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and extracellular matrix, appropriate mechanical properties and vasoactivity has yet to be demonstrated for tissue engineering of small diameter blood vessels. Synthetic S...
