In this study, we compared four decellularization protocols and finally developed an
optimized one through which a porcine bladder acellular matrix (BAM) with well-preserved …

The aim of this study was to produce a natural, acellular matrix from porcine bladder tissue
for use as a scaffold in developing a tissue-engineered bladder replacement. Full-thickness …

In spite of long term clinical use of decellularized bladder submucosa matrix (BSM), little is
known about the active factors within this material. In this paper, we analyzed the biological …

Tissue-engineering techniques have brought a great hope for bladder repair and
reconstruction. The crucial requirements of a tissue-engineered bladder are bladder smooth …

Successful tissue engineering requires appropriate recellularization and vascularization.
Herein, we assessed the regenerative and angiogenic effects of porcine bladder acellular …

Over the last few decades, both synthetic and natural materials have been utilized to
develop bladder substitutes. Most attempts have not been successful because of …

Purpose: We generated a vascularized, autologous, reseeded bladder substitute and
evaluated immediate vascularization and perfusion of the graft after implantation to the …

Background: Several synthetic and natural matrices have been described for tissue
engineering of bladder but there is little information on the effects of processing on their …

Construction of the urinary bladder de novo using tissue engineering technologies is the
“holy grail” of reconstructive urology. The search for the ideal biomaterial for urinary bladder …

Previous studies on the reconstruction of porcine bladder using bladder acellular matrix
allograft (BAMA) have indicated positive preliminary results with respect to graft shrinkage …
