A coculture system was employed to study the interactions between endothelium and vascular smooth muscle cells in arachidonic acid metabolism. Bovine aortic endothelial cells grown on micropore filters impregnated with gelatin and coated with fibronectin are mounted on polystyrene chambers and suspe

## Abstract Porous tubular poly(trimethylene carbonate) (PTMC) scaffolds for vascular tissue engineering, with an inner diameter of 3 mm and a wall thickness of 1 mm, were prepared by means of dipβcoating and subsequent leaching of NaCl particles. The scaffolds, with an average pore size of 110 ΞΌm
Interactions of liver connective tissue cells, skin fibroblasts and smooth muscle cells with collagen gels in uitro were studied and compared. Liver connective tissue cells showed the lowest rate of migration into the gel and the highest speed of gel contraction, reflecting their high adhesiveness
