Heart tissue engineering holds a great potential for human heart disease therapy. Regeneration of whole biofunctional human heart is the ultimate goal of tissue engineering. Recent advances take the first step towards whole heart regeneration. However, a substantial amount of challenges have to be overcome.
心脏组织工程在人类心脏病治疗方面具有巨大潜力。构建具有完整生物功能的人类心脏是组织工程的最终目标。近期的进展朝着全心脏再生迈出了第一步。然而,仍有大量挑战有待克服。
