title: Decellularization of porcine carotid by the recipient's serum and evaluation of its biocompatibility using a rat autograft model.
abstract: Recently, decellularized tissues for organ transplantation and regeneration have been actively studied in the field of tissue engineering. In the decellularization process, surfactants such as sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) have been most commonly used to remove cellular components from the tissue. However, the residual surfactant may be cytotoxic in vivo and has been reported to hinder remodeling after implantation. In addition, treatment with surfactants may destroy the important extracellular matrix (ECM) structure that allows the decellularized tissue to function as a scaffold for cells. In this study, decellularized tissues with high biocompatibility were created using the recipient's serum. By immersing a heterogeneous tissue in serum conditioned to activate the complement system and DNase I, its cellular components could be removed. Compared to an SDS-treated graft, the serum-treated graft preserved the native structure of its ECM. When subcutaneously implanted into an isogenic inbred rat, the graft treated with the recipient's serum resulted in less immunorejection than did the SDS-treated graft.
