A biomimetic tissue scaffold for repairing an elongated tissue in need of repair can comprise a plurality of coiled flexible polymeric ribbons having a surface on which is formed an array of nanofibers, the ribbons forming a tubular body defining a first open end in which a first end of the elongated tissue is receivable, a second open end in which a second end of the elongated tissue is receivable, and a lumen extending between the first and second open ends.

The present invention provides a valve material having synergistic anti-coagulation and anti-calcification functions and a preparation method therefor. The preparation method comprises the following steps: performing glutaraldehyde cross-linking treatment on an animal-derived biological valve material; immersing the treated valve material in a blocking solution containing an amine compound for 0.5-6 h, thereby blocking the remaining aldehyde groups after glutaraldehyde cross-linking; then placing the valve material into a reaction solution containing an anticoagulant and a cross-linking agent, and performing cross-linking treatment for 6-24 h at 4° C.-37° C.; and finally washing and obtaining the valve material, and storing the valve material in a mixed solvent of glutaraldehyde or isopropyl alcohol/glycerol. The method can effectively solve the problem of calcification and thrombosis caused by residual aldehyde groups in a valve material prepared by the existing method. The valve material prepared by the present method can be used as a valve material required for aortic valve, pulmonary valve, venous valve, mitral valve and tricuspid valve replacement.
