Matrix Metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) and Biodegradable Polymers in the Engineering of a Vascular Construct

The role of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 and processing conditions of biodegradable polymer scaffolds has been investigated to optimize engineering vascular constructs. For a small diameter vascular construct, uniform 10 mm thickness of highly porous scaffolds were developed using a computer-con...
