tissue transplantation

The results of growing the printed tissue in CarGrow medium (above) and without it. You can see that the innovative process maintains approximately the original size of the tissue and prevents its drastic contraction. Courtesy of the Technion spokesperson

New technology for growing printed tissues for transplantation

Researchers at the Technion demonstrated the advantage of tissues grown in the laboratory for a longer period of time before being transplanted

The blood vessels in the abdominal muscle of the mouse (red) and the blood vessels of the engineered tissue implanted in this muscle (green). Before implantation, the engineered blood vessels underwent static stretching, which caused them to organize in a direction parallel to the stretching direction. After the transplant, as you can see, a very good connection was achieved between the transplanted blood vessels and the original blood vessels, thanks to the similar directionality.
