Self-assembling functionalised peptides into decellularised materials for application in small diameter vascular grafts

There is a clear clinical need for small diameter blood vessel grafts. Previous studies have shown that decellularised porcine arteries have potential for future development and clinical translation. However, in order to overcome the problems of thrombogenesis and encourage endothelialisation in sma...
