Abstract

The invention discloses a heart simulation structure as well as a forming method and a special mold thereof and belongs to the field of organ production, biological materials and medical instruments. The heart simulation structure comprises a main body structure, at least one heart chamber structure, at least one blood vessel system and at least one nervous system, wherein the main body structure is a mixture of hydrogel and myocardial seed cells, is high in biocompatibility and can facilitate realization of a blood pumping function of a heart; each blood vessel system is dendritically or spirally distributed on the periphery of each heart chamber structure; each nervous system is located in the main body structure. The special mold comprises at least one casing top, at least one casing bottom, at least one air sac, at least one blood vessel system catheter and at least one nervous system catheter, wherein the at least one casing top and the at least one casing bottom are sealed through embedment assembly to constitute the outside of the mold; the at least one air sac, the at least one blood vessel system catheter and the at least one nervous system catheter are located inside the special mold. A new idea is provided for in-vitro rapid construction of the artificial heart, and the heart simulation structure is similar to real hearts of animals in form and function.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of organ manufacturing, biomaterials and medical instruments, and relates to a heart simulation structure, its forming method and a special mold. Background technique [0002] Compared with (semi) mechanical artificial organs, biological artificial organs have stronger biocompatibility and animal body coordination. Biological artificial organs also have the potential to minimize disadvantages in terms of transplant rejection. For now, scientists aim to provide autologous artificial organs to patients in dire need of organ transplants. From a macro and micro perspective, the combination of stem cell technology, biomaterials and engineering technologies can provide unlimited possibilities for the manufacture of artificial organs. [0003] Most of the current artificial hearts use biomechanical means to partially or completely replace the pumping function of the heart to maintain blood circulation throughout the body. ...
