Biodegradable Extremely-Small-Diameter Vascular Graft Made of Silk Fibroin can be Implanted in Mice.

CONCLUSION: This mouse model of arterial graft implantation enables us to analyze the remodeling process and biocompatibility of extremely-small-diameter vascular grafts. Biodegradable silk fibroin might be applicable for further researches using genetically modified mice. PMID: 32101838 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
