The in vitro construction of tissue-engineered small diameter (<6 mm) blood vessels with sufficient strength and mechanical compliance has evaded researchers. We hypothesize that the high spatial organization of the medial layer of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and their surrounding matrix pr
Important to the tissue engineering of a substitute blood vessel is an understanding of those factors which regulate vascular biology. A major factor in this regulation is the mechanical environment imposed by the hernodynamics of the vascular system. In this the vascular endothelium plays a critica
