Fabrication of an anatomy-mimicking BIO-AIR-TUBE with engineered cartilage

Introduction: We devised a strategy for the fabrication of an ‘anatomy-mimicking’ cylinder-type engineered trachea combined with cartilage engineering. The engineered BIOTUBEs are used to support the architecture of the body tissue, for long-segment trachea (>5 cm) with carinal reconstruction. Th...
