Macrophage Interactions with Decellularized Heart Valve Materials: Influence of Crosslinking Treatment
While macrophages have been implicated in the failure of bioprosthetic heart valves, there is no current literature on the macrophage response to crosslinked, native collagen. Using decellularized bovine pericardium (DBP) as a model, this study investigates the response of macrophage-like cells (U93...
