Translation of tissue-engineered heart components: criteria, roadblocks, and limitations
Independent progress in the translation of tissue engineered vascular conduits (23), myocardium (6), and heart valves (9) encourages integrated approaches to developing whole heart constructs. Recent advancements in whole organ decellularization provide an alternative approach to generating an off-the-shelf human heart (19). Figures adapted with permission from Refs. 6, 9, 23, 40.
