Abstract

DiI-labeled MSCs/mL ADA-GEL. Four weeks postoperatively, tissue formation and vascularization were investigated by histology and microcomputed tomography. We were able to prove vascularization originating from the AV loop in both groups with statistically significant more vessels in group B containing MSCs. Moreover, encapsulated MSCs promoted biodegradation of the ADA-GEL microcapsules. In the present study, we were able to demonstrate for the first time, the successful vascularization of ADA-GEL microcapsules by means of the AV loop. Furthermore, ADA-GEL displayed a good biocompatibility and encapsulation of MSCs into ADA-GEL microcapsule-enhanced vascularization as well as biodegradation.
