Immunogenicity of intensively decellularized equine carotid arteries is conferred by the extracellular matrix protein collagen type VI.
The limited biocompatibility of decellularized scaffolds is an ongoing challenge in tissue engineering. Here, we demonstrate the residual immunogenicity of an extensively decellularized equine carotid artery (dEAC(intens)) and identify the involved immunogenic components. EAC were submitted to an el...
