Engineering 2D Cardiac Tissues Using Biomimetic Protein Micropatterns Based on the Extracellular Matrix in the Embryonic Heart
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. Due to the extremely low natural regeneration rate of heart muscle, development of new therapeutics directed towards heart repair is challenging. A potential approach to regenerate damaged heart is offered by cardiac tissue engineering....
