Cardiac tissue engineering is focused on obtaining functional cardiomyocyte constructs to provide an alternative to cellular cardiomyoplasty. Mechanical stimuli have been shown to stimulate protein expression and the differentiation of mammalian cells from contractile tissues. Our aim was to obtain
## Abstract The aim of this study was to develop a technique to decellularize a porcine cartilage bone construct with view to using this as a biological scaffold for cartilage substitution. The decellularization protocol applied freeze/thaw cycles; this was followed by cyclic incubation in hypotoni
