Also iPSCs have been associated with viral infection and eventual oncogenicity. Cardiac tissue engineering is a new technology based on the use of combinations of cells with regenerative capacity, biological and/or synthetic materials, cell signaling agents to induce the regeneration of an organ or damaged tissue.
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have been linked to viral infection and potential cancer development. Cardiac tissue engineering is a novel technology that utilizes combinations of regenerative cell types, biological materials, and synthetic components along with signaling agents to stimulate the regeneration of an organ or damaged tissue.
