Produção e degradação in vitro de estruturas tubulares de celulose bacteriana

Abstract: Resumo: A necessidade de novos recursos em cardiologia tem direcionado a Engenharia de Tecidos ao desenvolvimento de vasos sanguíneos artificiais que atendam aos requisitos do organismo. Neste trabalho, estruturas tubulares de celulose bacteriana (CB) foram produzidas e sua degradação in vitro foi avaliada. Através de microscopia eletrônica de varredura constatou-se que não houve alterações significativas na microestrutura e morfologia das fibras de CB após ensaios de degradação. Os ensaios de degradação em so… Show more

“…The ability of bacterial cellulose to be degraded has not yet been fully elucidated. In animal and human tissues, it is considered limited due to the absence of hydrolases that rupture the ß (1,4) binding of the cellulose chain, which is responsible for the solubility of the biomaterial ( Oliveira, Rambo & Porto, 2013 ). Although the idea of a completely degradable scaffold is interesting from the point of view of tissue engineering, there remain difficulties with materials that exhibit this property, since the timing of degradation and tissue repair combined with the mechanical properties acquired by the newly formed tissue have led researchers to believe that a material with a low rate of degradation may respond better when the scarring process requires more time-consuming conditions ( Bhattacharjee et al, 2015 ).…”

“…Tissue engineering approaches are being used to develop palliative methods for these pathologies such as the construction of artificial blood vessels. The purpose of this study was to biosynthesize artificial vessels using Gluconacetobacter hasenii 's bacterial cellulose (BC) as scaffolding [ 3 ]. Functional and structural characteristics of the vessels were evaluated, as well as the coating of the cellulolytic tubular scaffolding with human aortic smooth muscle cells (HASMC).…”
