Tissue-Engineered Vascular Rings from Human iPSC-Derived Smooth Muscle Cells

There is an urgent need for an efficient approach to obtain a large-scale and renewable source of functional human vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) to establish robust, patient-specific tissue model systems for studying the pathogenesis of vascular disease, and for developing novel therapeutic i...
