The researchers modified the membrane of mesenchymal stem cells by adding thrombin, an enzyme
The scaffold created by the cells will allow them to withstand the aggressive conditions of transplantation, thus overcoming one of the main obstacles facing cell engineering, according to the study.
Previously, scientists from the University of Tel Aviv were the first tothe world printed on a 3D printer heart from human tissue. Researchers believe that in 10 years they will be able to print a fully working artificial heart.
