| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Aim: We investigated the in vivo re-cellularization of the decellularized trachea.
Materials & Methods: Nine tracheas of adult Sprague-Dawley rats were harvested and decellularized. After histological and mechanical examination of these scaffolds, the decellularized tracheas were implanted orthotopically (n=9). After 4 weeks of implantation, endoscopic evaluation of the tracheas was performed, followed by resection and histological evaluation.
Results: Complete removal of cell components after 9 cycles of decellularization was verified. The elastic intensity of the decellularized trachea corresponded to one sixth of the native trachea. Of the nine rats which received decellularized tracheal transplantation, two rats died due to graft obstruction. Consequently, survival rate after 4 weeks of implantation was 78%. Histological examination revealed that ciliated columnar epithelium was regenerated into the luminal surface of the scaffold, although a cartilage regeneration was not observed.
