The present disclosure relates to methods of preparing personalized blood vessels, useful for transplantation with improved host compatibility and reduced susceptibility to thrombosis. Also provided are personalized blood vessels produced by the methods and use thereof in surgery.

Provided are an anticoagulation and anticalcification biological material and a preparation method therefor. The preparation method includes the following steps: introducing, on a biological tissue, a polymerizable reactive group, and undergoing free radical copolymerization with a zwitterion. In the present disclosure, by introducing a reactive group capable of free radical polymerization to a biological tissue and undergoing free radical copolymerization with a zwitterionic monomer, collagen in the biological tissue is crosslinked at multiple sites by means of a polymer, thereby achieving sufficient crosslinking within and between collagen fibers, improving the stability of the biological tissue, and prolonging the service life of the biological tissue. Moreover, a zwitterion is introduced to the surface of the biological tissue, to improve the anticoagulation performance, promote the in-situ endothelialization of a biological valve, and prevent the calcium element deposition.

Coated bone grafts are provided as well as methods of use thereof and methods of making. In accordance with the instant invention, methods of preparing a coated bone graft (e.g., bone allograft) are provided. In certain embodiments, the method comprises electrospraying a composition comprising a polymer and, optionally, an agent, particularly a therapeutic agent, onto the surface of the bone graft. Therapeutic agents include, without limitation: bone stimulating agents, anti-fibrotic agents, antimicrobials, anti-inflammatory agents, and pro-angiogenesis agents.

A bioadhesive sheet-shaped material configured to be attached onto a surface of an organ, a method for producing the bioadhesive sheet-shaped material, and a method for treating a disease by using the bioadhesive sheet-shaped material. The bioadhesive sheet-shaped material includes an extracellular matrix layer, a sheet-shaped cell culture, and a biodegradable gel layer, where the sheet-shaped cell culture is interposed between the extracellular matrix layer and the biodegradable gel layer, and the bioadhesive sheet-shaped material is by attaching the extracellular matrix layer onto a surface of an organ.

A composite material can include a gel and at least one nanostructure disposed within the gel. A method for healing a soft tissue defect can include applying a composite material to a soft tissue defect, wherein the composite material includes a gel and a nanostructure disposed within the gel. A method for manufacturing a composite material for use in healing soft tissue defects can include providing a gel and disposing nanofibers within the gel.

It is provided a method of producing high-quality engineered cartilage graft in a human of animal, such as nasal cartilage graft, comprising expanding chondrocytes and/or chondroprogenitors, e.g. autologous human nasoseptal chondrocytes (hNC,) from a donor patient by selecting expanded chondrocytes and/or chondroprogenitors by detecting the expression of at least one surfaceome protein gene or secretome protein gene, wherein the at least one surfaceome protein gene is ADGRG1, NPR3, SLC16A4, TSPAN13, FZD4 and SLC22A23 and the at least one secretome protein gene is ADGRG1, B3GNT7, COLGALT2, IGFBP3, STC2, SAA1, ANGPLT1, COL8A2, INHBB, ADAMTS9, ORM1, COL14A1, DCN, COL21A1, ENOX1, IL7, MXRA5 GAL, TFRC, SERPINA9, LIF, GDF6 and COL5A3.

The present disclosure relates to exosome bone graft systems and compositions and preservative systems and compositions as well as methods of use and methods of manufacturing of them.

The present invention relates to a method for fabrication of an extracellular matrix-induced self-assembly and to fabrication of an artificial tissue using same. The method for fabrication of an extracellular matrix-induced self-assembly comprise the steps of: (a) decellularizing and powdering a tissue-derived extracellular matrix (ECM); and (b) adding the decellularized extracellular matrix powder to cells and culturing the cells to form a cell-extracellular matrix powder self-assembly. Accordingly, the self-assembly has characteristics similar to those of extracellular matrix tissues and can be fabricated into three-dimensional artificial tissues 1 cm or greater in size, thus finding advantageous applications as a cell therapy product and an artificial tissue implant.

Provided is a polymeric auricular scaffold for use in auricular implants and methods for making them. The disclosed polymeric auricular scaffold is formed using a biocompatible polymer sheet that is vacuumed formed into a shape representing auricular cartilage using a vacuum forming mold.

The present invention pertains to novel bone graft substitute materials. These materials are porous, homogenously dispersed solid mixtures of calcium phosphate and pro-regenerative extracellular matrix (ECM)—and potentially any pharmaceutical agent and/or mineral—that have been infused with polydopamine. In some embodiments the bone graft materials have osteoinductive factors incorporated within them.
