| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have developed the Biostent concept in which the luminal surface of the stent is completely covered with the endothelial layer. The experiments were conducted using a biodegradable stents. However, due to the sparse mesh of the stent, breakage and deficiency of the fibrin membrane occurred when removing the metal rod after fibrin gel polymerization. We finally obtained the complete fibrin layer by Teflon coating on the surface of the metal rod. Then animal trials have been conducted using beagles. Isolation of endothelial cells of beagles was performed by exposing the femoral vein. The femoral vein had a small diameter of 2-3 mm in diameter, and the cut section further shrunk and shortened the vessel, so it was difficult to isolate the cells. After repeating the procedures, we succeeded in achieving endothelialization of the inner surface of the fibrin membrane. Currently the Biostent has been placed in jugular vein of beagles and under observation.
