Does carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester facilitate cell tracing and colocalization studies in bioartificial organ engineering?
Using colocalization histology we could label and track cells within the bioartificial myocardial tissue graft in vitro and post implant and assess viability and distribution.
The Ross procedure can be offered as an alternative to standard prosthetic AVR with an excellent short-term outcome. The former inclusion/exclusion criteria for this procedure should be re-evaluated.
