“…The essential steps are providing a substrate for cells to grow, followed by providing the necessary nutrients and physiological conditions, and the the cells will produce the ECM that can be decellularized and used. This can achieve simple sheets of dECM that can be used for other experiments or procedures [ 101 , 103 , 126 , 209 , 247 , 248 , 249 , 250 , 251 , 252 , 253 , 254 , 255 , 256 , 257 ], the modification of existing dECM to include tissue-specific ECM [ 258 ], or the modification of the surface of synthetic substrates [ 84 , 204 , 205 , 259 , 260 , 261 ]. Such a technique can be used in more complex situations, such as the surgical implantation of a scaffold for autologous cells to produce the ECM, followed by explanting then decellularizing the resulting scaffold, and finally implanting it in the orthotopic location [ 262 ].…”
