Description :

 
Techniques to decellularize donor organs
have matured, effectively removing cellular material while retaining the extracellular
matrix scaffold. These scaffolds can be recellularized with a patient’s own cells, greatly
reducing rejection risks and the need for lifelong immunosuppression.
