Decellularization is used in biomedical engineering to produce tissue that can be used in artificial organ and tissue regeneration. 生物医学工程中，去细胞过程可用来制成组织，用于人工器官组织再生。
University scientists have carried out this "decellularization" technique successfully on hearts from pigs and rats. 大学里的科学家成功地将“去细胞”技术用在了猪心和鼠心上。
- More examples
- Doctors can clean out hearts that come from human donors or even pigs, a technique known as decellularization, then rebuild them with each patient's own cells.
- Yale University's Laura Niklason has used decellularization with blood vessels and heart valves.
- Decellularization is the process of removing the cellular antigens from a tissue that would initiate an immune response while leaving behind an intact extracellular matrix.
- It has been postulated that tissue antigenicity can be abolished or significantly reduced by decellularization methods.
