Abstract
Expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) failed to achieve clinical application in the field of small-diameter blood vessels due to its lack of elasticity in the circumferential direction and high stiffness. Excellent multidirectional elasticity and dynamic compliance matching with natural blood vessels are important means to solve the problem of acute thrombosis and poor long-term patency. Herein, novel PTFE spinning blood vessels were prepared by the PTFE emulsion electrospinning process, which not only presented good bidirectional elasticity but also promoted the adhesion and proliferation of endothelial cells and induced the contractile expression of SMCs. And, a PTFE-shish and aminated polycaprolactone (PCL)-kebab structure has been developed that converted the chemically inert PTFE surface into a drug-loading platform for the multifunctionalization of PTFE vascular grafts. It provides novel preparation methods for the application of new bidirectional elastic small-diameter artificial blood vessels and their surface functionalization construction.
期刊介绍:
ACS Applied Bio Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of biomaterials and biointerfaces including and beyond the traditional biosensing, biomedical and therapeutic applications.
The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrates knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, and chemistry into important bio applications. The journal is specifically interested in work that addresses the relationship between structure and function and assesses the stability and degradation of materials under relevant environmental and biological conditions.
