{ "pk": 59131, "title": "Decelluarization and Reseeding of Porcine Colon with Human CaCo-2 Cells for Whole-Scale Organ Engineering Applications", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "A new approach to whole-scale organ engineering is the seeding of stem cells upon a decellularized scaffold of a desired organ. Current efforts seek to use this method for whole-scale organ engineering. Here, we report a novel decellularizationrecellularization approach to engineering a human colonic graft with human enterocytes and xenogeneic scaffold. Porcine colon tissue was decellularized with protein-solubilizing agents and recellularized by incubation with Caco-2. Immunohistochemistry, DNA staining, and SEM were used to study the effects upon the scaffold. Exposure to 2%SDS-0.5%Triton solution for four hours resulted in the best decellularization and preservation of microstructure, while tissues treated with 2%SDS-0.5%Triton and 0.05%Trypsin/EDTA supported the best recellularization. Our method provides a potential strategy for streamlined regeneration of a viable colonic lumen from xenogeneic and allogeneic sources while maintaining colon microstructure and potential for recellularization.", "language": "en", "license": null, "keywords": [], "section": "Research", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3b0743s3", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Julie", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Haduong", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California, Berkeley", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Rahul", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Nayak", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California, Berkeley", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Yumi", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Suh", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California, Berkeley", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Vinay", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Viswanadham", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California, Berkeley", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": "2014-12-18T08:28:29Z", "date_accepted": "2014-12-18T08:28:29Z", "date_published": "2014-12-18T08:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/our_bsj/article/59131/galley/45152/download/" } ] }
