- Abstract
A guiding principle in regenerative cardiology is the idea that the heart is uniquely designed and that the challenges associated with engineering heart tissue can be resolved by mimicking the heart's structure and physiology. This article explores the fundamental concepts behind myocardial tissue regeneration via cell-based and protein-based therapies and surveys biomimetic approaches to cardiac perfusion, regeneration, and biocompatibility. In addition, it reviews biomimicry-based techniques for endovascular perfusion., (© 2020 American Society of Radiologic Technologists.)
