Abstract Revascularization via coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) to treat cardiovascular disease is established as one of the most important lifesaving surgical techniques worldwide. But the shortage in functionally self-adaptive autologous arteries leads to circumstances where the clinical reality must deal with fighting pathologies coming from the mismatching biophysical functionality of more available venous grafts. Synthetic biomaterial-based CABG grafts did not make it to the market yet, what is mostly due to technical hurdles in matching biophysical properties to the complex demands of the CABG niche. But bacterial Nanocellulose (BNC) Hydrogels derived by growing biofilms hold a naturally integrative character in function-giving properties by its freedom in designing form and intrinsic fiber architecture. In this study we use this integral to combine impacts on the luminal fiber matrix, biomechanical properties and the reciprocal stimulation of microtopography and induced flow patterns, to investigate biomimetic and artificial designs on their bio-functional effects. Therefore, we produced tubular BNC-hydrogels at distinctive designs, characterized the structural and biomechanical properties and subjected them to in vitro endothelial colonization in bioreactor assisted perfusion cultivation. Results showed clearly improved functional properties and gave an indication of successfully realized stimulation by artery-typical helical flow patterns. |
