Breast cancer remains the most commonly diagnosed malignancy among women worldwide. Standard treatment often involves mastectomy, followed by chemotherapy and/or radiation. Approximately 40% of patients undergo breast reconstruction to address the physical and psychological effects of tissue loss.

This study aimed to improve the efficiency of decellularization and enhance the functional properties of vascular grafts to optimize their application in vascular repair. Rabbit abdominal aortas were used as the decellularization target, and ultrasound-assisted decellularization was performed using intermittent ultrasound at 100 W power, 20 kHz frequency, and 4 °C. Rabbit abdominal aortas were subjected to three different decellularization techniques.

The transition from reconstructive to regenerative strategies in vascular surgery has intensified the need for grafts that are biocompatible, growth-capable, and resistant to thrombosis. Addressing this challenge, Park et al. introduce a groundbreaking method for engineering fully biological, endothelialized tissue-engineered vascular conduits (TEVCs) using decellularized human umbilical arteries (dHUAs) coated with human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived endothelial cells (hiPSC-ECs).

The development of decellularized vascular tissues for tissue engineering and vascular implants presents a promising approach to creating functional blood vessels. However, effective endothelialization with human endothelial cells remains challenging. This study examined the endothelialization of decellularized porcine aortas using human induced pluripotent stem (hiPS) cell-derived endothelial cells.

Small-diameter vascular grafts (SDVGs; ≤6 mm inner diameter) often fail due to thrombosis, poor endothelialization, and low patency. To overcome these limitations, we developed electrospun composite scaffolds incorporating decellularized ECM (UdECM), a marine invertebrate source rich in collagen, glycosaminoglycans, and elastin. UdECM was blended with polycaprolactone (PCL) at 1, 5, and 10 wt% and electrospun into fibrous matrices.
