Tenogenesis of Decellularized Porcine Achilles Tendon Matrix Reseeded with Human Tenocytes in the Nude Mice Xenograft Model

Tenogenesis of Decellularized Porcine Achilles Tendon Matrix Reseeded with Human Tenocytes in the Nude Mice Xenograft Model

Cultivation of autologous human tenocytes in a cell-free xenogenic extracellular tendon matrix (xECM) could present an approach for tendon reconstruction. The aim of this study was to achieve tendon-like tissue formation by implanting decellularized porcine Achilles tendons recellularized with human...
