Synthetic vascular grafts suitable for small-diameter arteries(<6 mm) are in great need.However,there are still no commercially available small-diameter vascular grafts(SDVGs) in clinical practice due to thrombosis and stenosis after in vivo implantation.When designing SDVGs,many studies emphasized reendothelization but ignored the importance of reconstruction of the smooth muscle layer(SML).To facilitate rapid SML regeneration,a high-resolution 3D printing method was used to create a novel bilayer SDVG with structures and mechanical properties mimicking natural arteries.Bioinspired by the collagen alignment of SML,the inner layer of the grafts had larger pore sizes and high porosity to accelerate the infiltration of cells and their circumferential alignment,which could facilitate SML reconstruction for compliance restoration and spontaneous endothelialization.The outer layer was designed to induce fibroblast recruitment by low porosity and minor pore size and provide SDVG with sufficient mechanical strength.One month after implantation,the arteries regenerated by 3D-printed grafts exhibited better pulsatility than electrospun grafts,with a compliance(8.9%) approaching that of natural arteries(11.36%) and significantly higher than that of electrospun ones(1.9%).The 3D-printed vascular demonstrated a three-layer structure more closely resembling natural arteries while electrospun grafts showed incomplete endothelium and immature SML.Our study shows the importance of SML reconstruction during vascular graft regeneration and provides an effective strategy to reconstruct blood vessels through 3D-printed structures rapidly. 展开更多

The aim of this review is to present and compare the various animal models of vascularized nerve grafts described in the literature as well as to summarize preclinical evidence for superior functional results compared to non-vascularized free nerve grafts. We also will present the state of the art on prefabricated vascularized nerve grafts. A systematic literature review on vascularized nerve graft models was conducted via the retrieval with the Pub Med database on March 30, 2019. Data on the animal, nerve, and vascularization model, the recipient bed, the evaluation time points and methods, and the results of the study results were extracted and analyzed from selected articles. The rat sciatic nerve was the most popular model for vascularized nerve grafts, followed by the rabbit;however, rabbit models allow for longer nerve grafts, which are suitable for translational evaluation, and produced more cautious results on the superiority of vascularized nerve grafts. Compared to free nerve grafts, vascularized nerve grafts have better early but similar long-term results, especially in an avascular bed. There are few studies on avascular receiving beds and prefabricated nerve grafts. The clinical translation potential of available animal models is limited, and current experimental knowledge cannot fully support that the differences between vascularized nerve grafts and free nerve grafts yield a clinical advantage that justifies the complexity of the procedure. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Diagnosis of prosthetic vascular graft infection with[(18)F]fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography(18F-FDG PET/CT)allows for early detection of functional changes associated with infection,based on increased glucose utilization by activated macrophages and granulocytes.Aseptic vascular grafts,like all foreign bodies,can stimulate an inflammatory response,which can present as increased activity on 18F-FDG PET/CT.Consequently,distinguishing aseptic inflammation from graft infection,though important,can be difficult.In the case of endovascular aneurysm repair(EVAR),a minimally invasive procedure involving the transfemoral insertion of an endoprosthetic stent graft,the normal postoperative appearance of these grafts on 18F-FDG PET/CT can vary over time,potentially confounding study interpretation.AIM To investigate the visual,semiquantitative,and temporal characteristics of aseptic vascular grafts in patients status post EVAR.METHODS In this observational retrospective cohort study,patients with history of EVAR who underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT for indications other than infection were identified retrospectively.All patients were asymptomatic for graft infection-no abdominal pain,fever of unknown origin,sepsis,or leukocytosis-at the time of imaging and for≥2 mo after each PET/CT.Imaging studies such as CT for each patient were also reviewed,and any patients with suspected or confirmed vascular graft infection were excluded.One hundred two scans performed on 43 patients(34 males;9 females;age=77±8 years at the time of the final PET/CT)were retrospectively reviewed.All 43 patients had an abdominal aortic(AA)vascular graft,40 patients had a right iliac(RI)limb graft,and 41 patients had a left iliac(LI)limb graft.Twentytwo patients had 1 PET/CT and 21 patients had from 2 to 9 PET/CTs.Grafts were imaged between 2 mo to 168 mo(about 14 years)post placement.Eight grafts were imaged within 6 mo of placement,including three that were imaged within three months of placement.The mean interval between graft placement and PET/CT for all 102 scans was 51±39 mo.PET/CT data was reconstructed with region-of-interest analysis of proximal,mid and distal portions of the grafts and background ascending aorta.Maximum standardized uptake value(SUVmax)was recorded for each region.SUVmax-to-background uptake ratios(URs)were calculated.Visual assessment was performed using a 2-pattern grading scale:Diffuse(homogeneous uptake less than liver uptake)and focal(one or more areas of focal uptake in any part of the graft).Statistical analysis was performed.RESULTS In total,there were 306 AA grafts,285 LI grafts,282 RI grafts,and 306 ascending aorta background SUVmax measurements.For all 102 scans,mean SUVmax values for AA grafts were 2.8-3.0 along proximal,mid,and distal segments.Mean SUVmax values for LI grafts and RI grafts were 2.7-2.8.Mean SUVmax values for background were 2.5±0.5.Mean URs were 1.1-1.2.Visual analysis of the scans reflected results of quantitative analysis.On visual inspection,98%revealed diffuse,homogeneous 18F-FDG uptake less than liver.Graft URs and visual pattern categories were significantly associated for AA graft URs(F-ratio=21.5,P<0.001),LI graft URs(F-ratio=20.4,P<0.001),and RI graft URs(F-ratio=30.4,P<0.001).Thus,visual patterns of 18F-FDG uptake corresponded statistically significantly to semiquantitative URs.The age of grafts showing focal patterns was greater than grafts showing diffuse patterns,87±89 vs 50±37 mo,respectively(P=0.02).URs were significantly associated with graft age for AA grafts(r=0.19,P=0.001).URs were also significantly associated with graft age for LI grafts(r=0.25,P<0.0001),and RI grafts(r=0.31,P<0.001).Quartiles of similar numbers of graft(n=25-27)grouped by graft age indicated that URs were significantly higher for 4th quartile vs 2nd quartile URs(F-ratio=19.5,P<0.001).When evaluating URs,graft SUVmax values within 10%-20%of the ascending aorta SUVmax is evident in aseptic grafts,except for grafts in the oldest quartiles.In this study,grafts in the oldest quartiles(>7 years post EVAR)showed SUVmax up to 30%higher than the ascending aorta SUVmax.CONCLUSION Characteristics of an aseptic vascular stent graft in the aorta and iliac vessels on 18F-FDG PET/CT include graft SUVmax values within 10%-20%of the ascending aorta background SUVmax.The SUVmax of older aseptic grafts can be as much as 30%above background.The visual uptake pattern of diffuse,homogeneous uptake less than liver was seen in 98%of aseptic vascular grafts,making this pattern particularly reassuring for clinicians. 展开更多

Blood vessels constitute a closed pipe system distributed throughout the body,transporting blood from the heart to other organs and delivering metabolic waste products back to the lungs and kidneys.Changes in blood vessels are related to many disorders like stroke,myocardial infarction,aneurysm,and diabetes,which are important causes of death worldwide.Translational research for new appro-aches to disease modeling and effective treatment is needed due to the huge socio-economic burden on healthcare systems.Although mice or rats have been widely used,applying data from animal studies to human-specific vascular physiology and pathology is difficult.The rise of induced pluripotent stem cells(iPSCs)provides a reliable in vitro resource for disease modeling,regenerative medicine,and drug discovery because they carry all human genetic information and have the ability to directionally differentiate into any type of human cells.This review summarizes the latest progress from the establishment of iPSCs,the strategies for differentiating iPSCs into vascular cells,and the in vivo trans-plantation of these vascular derivatives.It also introduces the application of these technologies in disease modeling,drug screening,and regenerative medicine.Additionally,the application of high-tech tools,such as omics analysis and high-throughput sequencing,in this field is reviewed. 展开更多

As the number of patients suffering from cardiovascular diseases and peripheral vascular diseases rises,the constraints of autologous transplantation remain unavoidable.As a result,artificial vascular grafts must be developed.Adhesion of proteins,platelets and bacteria on implants can result in stenosis,thrombus formation,and postoperative infection,which can be fatal for an implantation.Polyurethane,as a commonly used biomaterial,has been modified in various ways to deal with the adhesions of proteins,platelets,and bacteria and to stimulate endothelium adhesion.In this review,we briefly summarize the mechanisms behind adhesions,overview the current strategies of surface modifications of polyurethane biomaterials used in vascular grafts,and highlight the challenges that need to be addressed in future studies,aiming to gain a more profound understanding of how to develop artificial polyurethane vascular grafts with an enhanced implantation success rate and reduced side effect. 展开更多

Vascularization is an important factor in nerve graft survival and function. The specific molecular regulations and patterns of angiogenesis following peripheral nerve injury are in a broad complex of pathways. This review aims to summarize current knowledge on the role of vascularization in nerve regeneration, including the key regulation molecules, and mechanisms and patterns of revascularization after nerve injury. Angiogenesis, the maturation of pre-existing vessels into new areas, is stimulated through angiogenic factors such as vascular endothelial growth factor and precedes the repair of damaged nerves. Vascular endothelial growth factor administration to nerves has demonstrated to increase revascularization after injury in basic science research. In the clinical setting, vascularized nerve grafts could be used in the reconstruction of large segmental peripheral nerve injuries. Vascularized nerve grafts are postulated to accelerate revascularization and enhance nerve regeneration by providing an optimal nutritional environment, especially in scarred beds, and decrease fibroblast infiltration. This could improve functional recovery after nerve grafting, however, conclusive evidence of the superiority of vascularized nerve grafts is lacking in human studies. A well-designed randomized controlled trial comparing vascularized nerve grafts to non-vascularized nerve grafts involving patients with similar injuries, nerve graft repair and follow-up times is necessary to demonstrate the efficacy of vascularized nerve grafts. Due to technical challenges, composite transfer of a nerve graft along with its adipose tissue has been proposed to provide a healthy tissue bed. Basic science research has shown that a vascularized fascial flap containing adipose tissue and a vascular bundle improves revascularization through excreted angiogenic factors, provided by the stem cells in the adipose tissue as well as by the blood supply and environmental support. While it was previously believed that revascularization occurred from both nerve ends, recent studies propose that revascularization occurs primarily from the proximal nerve coaptation. Fascial flaps or vascularized nerve grafts have limited applicability and future directions could lead towards off-the-shelf alternatives to autografting, such as biodegradable nerve scaffolds which include capillary-like networks to enable vascularization and avoid graft necrosis and ischemia. 展开更多

Objective: To investigate whether vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene plasmid carried by polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) vascular graft materials could transfect endothelial cells (ECs) and promote their growth. Methods: PTFE vascular graft materials carried with pCDI-hVEGF121, pCDI or pEGFP were incubated in Tris-buffer solution and the values of optical density of 260 nm at different time were plotted, then the DNA controlled release curve was made. ECs derived from human umbilical vein were seeded on the pCDI-hVEGF121/pCDI/pEGFP-PTFE materials or tissue culture plates, ECs numbers were counted and VEGF protein concentrations at different time were measured by enzyme-linked immunoadsorbent assay method. Green fluorescent protein (GFP) expression in ECs on pEGFP-PTFE materials was examined with fluorescence mi- croscopy. Results: The controlled release curve showed that the gene released from PTFE materials was rapid within 8 h, then slowed down and that the gene released continuously even after 72 h. At 24, 72 and 120 h, ECs number and proliferation rate of pCDI-hVEGFI21-PTFE materials were higher than those ofpCDI or pEGFP-PTFE materials (P〈0.05). VEGF protein concentration of pCDI-hVEGF121-PTFE materials was higher than that of pC DI or pEGFP-PTFE materials at 6, 24, 72 and 120 h (P〈0.01). GFP expression in ECs on the pEGFP-PTFE materials could be detected by fluorescence microscopy. Conclusion: PTFE graft can be used as a carrier of VEGF gene plasmid, VEGF gene carried by PTFE can transfect ECs and promote ECs growth. 展开更多

The paper presents a detailed analysis of experimental data in order to characterize the elastic properties of arteries.Such analysis would provide a good basis for evaluation of biomimetic vascular grafts.Since the latter needs to exhibit similar properties of native tissue,it is important to accurately characterize the biomimetic sample in a large range of applied stresses. The stress-strain properties vary according to the specific pathology(e.g.arteriosclerosis,aneurism)and the tissue graft must be chosen correctly.Two models are proposed in this paper on the stress-strain characteristics.An extension for frequency-domain analysis is provided for one of the models.The comparison between vascular grafts and native tissue for carotid and thoracic arteries in pigs are in good agreement with results from literature.The proposed experimental method offers suitable parameters for identifying models which characterize both elasticity and stiffness properties of the analyzed tissues(stress-strain).The proposed models show good performance in characterizing the intrinsic material properties. 展开更多

Conical vascular tubes are of strong demand owing to their formed shape and excellent characters to mimic human blood vessels. In this study,the automatic shuttle loom and computer aided design( CAD) system were customized to prepare a conical vascular graft. Meanwhile, the weaving principle of a conical vascular graft was identified in terms of the lift-drop front rest,and the geometrical relations were established among the cloth fell,front rest and back rest. Also,the change of weft density from the liftdrop motion of the front rest was analyzed,and a strategy was established to compensate the offset of weft density by changing the taken-up length. Afterwards,the proposed weaving principles were demonstrated by weaving a conical vascular graft on the customized shuttle loom. 展开更多

This study reviews the state of the art in structural design and the corresponding mechanical behaviours of composite vascular grafts. We critically analyse surface and matrix designs composed of layered, embedded, and hybrid structures along the radial and longitudinal directions;materials and manufacturing techniques, such as tissue engineering and the use of textiles or their combinations;and the corresponding mechanical behaviours of composite vascular grafts in terms of their physical–mechanical properties, especially their stress–strain relationships and elastic recovery. The role of computational studies is discussed with respect to optimizing the geometrics designs and the corresponding mechanical behaviours to satisfy specialized applications, such as those for the aorta and its subparts. Natural and synthetic endothelial materials yield improvements in the mechanical and biological compliance of composite graft surfaces with host arteries. Moreover,the diameter, wall thickness, stiffness, compliance, tensile strength, elasticity, and burst strength of the graft matrix are determined depending on the application and the patient. For composite vascular grafts, hybrid architectures are recommended featuring multiple layers, dimensions, and materials to achieve the desired optimal flexibility and function for complying with user-specific requirements. Rapidly emerging artificial intelligence and big data techniques for diagnostics and the threedimensional(3D) manufacturing of vascular grafts will likely yield highly compliant, subject-specific, long-lasting, and economical vascular grafts in the near-future. 展开更多

Natural silk from Bombyx mori has been used as medical sutures for several decades,and regenerated silk fibroin( RSF)based biomaterials have been increasingly studied in the past thirty years. However,vascular graft derived from silk fibroin fiber has been explored in recent several years with development of textile science and engineering. Moreover,endothelialization of vascular graft has been seen as an ideal strategy for preventing thrombosis and getting higher patency in a long term. Therefore,in the present work silk fibroin fiber vascular graft( SF) was chemically grafted with bioactive molecules such as heparin and RSF to improve the cytocompatibility. 3-aminopropyl-triethoxysilane(APTES),1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiie hydrochlide( EDC · HCl),and N-hydroxysuccinimide( NHS) have been employed as coupling agent and crosslinking agents,respectively. Microscopy and ATRFTIR were used to characterize the surface changes and the structure of the grafts after treatment,respectively. Cell culture in vitro and MTT assay were conducted to determine the improvement of cell affinity to the graft. Furthermore,mechanical properties of the grafts before and after treatment were compared. The results showed that the chemical grafting was an effective method for improving the cytocompatibility of SF without significant loss of mechanical properties. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Congenital anomalous retinal artery is rare and does not typically affect visual acuity.However,an abnormal artery that passes through and supplies blood to the macular area complicated with branch retinal artery occlusion may negatively impact visual acuity.This study reports an unusual case of anomalous retinal artery combined with retinal artery occlusion.CASE SUMMARY A 52-year-old male presented with severely reduced vision in the right eye.The fundus examination revealed an anomalous artery,extending from the superior temporal arcade and crossing the macula into the inferior temporal quadrant.The anomalous artery was partially occluded,with a narrowed lumen.A cherry-red spot was observed with whitening of the macular area,suggesting macular edema.Fundus fluorescein angiography revealed disc leakage and a delayed filling time.Optical coherence tomography revealed increased thickness of the neuroretina and underlying layers.The patient was treated with vessel dilation,hyperbaric oxygen,ocular massage,and thrombolytics.Visual acuity of the right eye subsequently improved to 20/200 from hand motion at 4 cm.This improvement in visual acuity persisted when the patient was examined at the 1-mo follow-up visit.The patient was subsequently followed via telephone interview.The information provided via interview indicated that visual acuity in the affected eye was stable up to 6 years from the time of the initial presentation.However,after 3 additional years,the patient was diagnosed with neovascular glaucoma in the right eye,which was subsequently enucleated.CONCLUSION Although congenital retinal vascular anomaly,including anomalous retinal artery,rarely affects vision,when complicated with branch retinal artery occlusion,the abnormal artery that supplies the macula may severely reduce visual acuity. 展开更多

The vascular graft with 4 mm diameter was prepared by casting one layer of polyurethane (PU) film onto the knitting tubular fabric as the reinforced support. The effects of different PU content and wall thickness on the longitudinal mechanical properties of vascular graft were investigated. The breaking elongation, breaking force, initial modulus and breaking work were studied. The results showed that the longitudinal mechanical properties of vascular graft were enhanced as the content of polyurethane increased, which resulted from the combination of PU excellent elasticity and fabric preferable strength. 展开更多

Textile vascular grafts are often used to treat the cardiovascular diseases.Scholars continue to search for new materials for the development of vascular grafts with excellent properties,polyimide(PI)fiber is a material suitable for making vascular grafts with high strength,radiation resistance and stable property,as well as non-cytotoxic and satisfying blood compatibility.This study investigated the tensile strength and hydrolytic degradation properties of PI,polyester(PET)and nylon(PA).The results suggested that the PI is suitable for preparing vascular grafts.And influences of different weaves and ratios of warp and weft density on the water permeability,thickness and porosity of PI vascular grafts were analyzed.Vascular grafts with six weaves and two ratios of warp and weft density were designed and prepared.The surface morphology,permeability and thickness were characterized to optimize the structure of the vascular grafts.The results showed that the wall thickness of all the samples is less than 100μm except for the sample with the ratio 2∶3 and 1/3 twill pattern.Permeability is mainly determined by the weave and the ratio of warp and weft density.The samples in plain weave have the lowest water permeability compared with other samples. 展开更多

Although bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)might have therapeutic potency in ischemic stroke,the benefits are limited.The current study investigated the effects of BMSCs engineered to overexpress vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)on behavioral defects in a rat model of transient cerebral ischemia,which was induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion.VEGF-BMSCs or control grafts were injected into the left striatum of the infarcted hemisphere 24 hours after stroke.We found that compared with the stroke-only group and the vehicle-and BMSCs-control groups,the VEGF-BMSCs treated animals displayed the largest benefits,as evidenced by attenuated behavioral defects and smaller infarct volume 7 days after stroke.Additionally,VEGF-BMSCs greatly inhibited destruction of the blood-brain barrier,increased the regeneration of blood vessels in the region of ischemic penumbra,and reducedneuronal degeneration surrounding the infarct core.Further mechanistic studies showed that among all transplant groups,VEGF-BMSCs transplantation induced the highest level of brain-derived neurotrophic factor.These results suggest that BMSCs transplantation with vascular endothelial growth factor has the potential to treat ischemic stroke with better results than are currently available. 展开更多

In this paper,a kind of composite microtube,which is made from superfine silk powder and polyurethane,reinforced by polyster and spandex tubular fabrics,was examined.The cross-section of composite microtubes were microporous,and micropores were uniform distributed,the inner surface was relatively smooth.The results showed that the wall thickness of composite microtubes increased,which led to the strength,the breaking work and the initial modulus incresead;that the spandex content increased brought about the initial modulus and the breaking work decreased,but the breaking extension and the breaking load were firstly increased and then decreased;and all the mechanical properties decreased as the SFSP content increased. 展开更多

An unknown aberrant f low in the right atrium observed on doppler with transesophageal echocardiogram(TEE) in a patient with prior coronary bypass. TEE revealed normal size left ventricle with severely dilated left atrium. There was moderate aortic regurgitation and moderate aortic stenosis noted. Patient was incidentally found to have an abnormal vascular communication noted to the right atrium. To further evaluate this f inding, the patient underwent cardiac magnetic resonance angiography which revealed that the tubular structure noted on TEE was actually a graft that was abutting onto the coronary sinus, and the f low anomaly was really the graft coming up and running adjacent to the coronary sinus. 展开更多
