Embodiment 1

[0150] Materials and methods

[0151]Preparation of skin ECM: Skin ECM was prepared as previously described (Reing JE, et al. Biomaterials. 2010;31(33):8626-33). Briefly, full-thickness skin was harvested from market weight (approximately 110 kg) pigs (Tissue Source Inc.) and subcutaneous fat and epidermis were removed by mechanical stratification. The tissue was then treated with 0.25% trypsin (Thermo Fisher Scientific) for 6 hours, 70% ethanol for 10 hours, and 3% H 2 o 2 Treatment for 15 minutes, treatment with 1% TritonX-100 (Sigma-Aldrich) / 0.26% EDTA / 0.69% tris for 6 hours, solution exchange for another 16 hours, and treatment with 0.1% peracetic acid / 4% ethanol (Rochester Midland) for 2 hours . Water washes were performed between each chemical change, with alternating water and phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) washes following the final step. All chemical exposures were performed with stirring at 300 rpm on an orbital shaker. The skin ECM was then lyophilized and gro...

[0165] result

[0166] developed a method to prepare hydrogels from extracellular matrix (ECM). Using decellularized tissue as a starting material, sonication can be applied to a wide range of tissue-specific ECMs, including the dermis, bladder stroma (UBM), and small intestinal submucosa (SIS). The method involves resuspension of comminuted ECM in neutral buffered saline solution followed by ECM solubilization with, for example, 20 kHz ultrasound frequency, using an amplitude of 20-100% (Figure 1). After 60 seconds of sonication, rapid gelation of the ECM solution was induced by lowering the temperature of the ECM solution to below 37° C. ( FIG. 4 , FIG. 5 , FIG. 6 ). The results of the rheological evaluation showed that using this method, ECM hydrogels could be prepared using ECM concentrations ranging from 25 mg / ml to 150 mg / ml ( Figure 7 , Figure 8 ). Once polymerized, ECM gels are stable at room temperature and can conform to customizable 3D geometries (Figure 2). ...

[0168] Materials and methods for Examples 4-7

[0169] Preparation of ECM bioscaffolds: Porcine skin ECM (dECM) was prepared as previously described (Reing et al., Biomaterials 31(33) (2010) 8626-33). Briefly, full-thickness skin was harvested from pigs of market weight (approximately 110 kg), and subcutaneous fat and epidermis were removed by mechanical stratification. The tissue was then treated with 0.25% trypsin (Thermo Fisher Scientific) for 6 hours, 70% ethanol for 10 hours, and 3% H 2 o 2 Treatment for 15 minutes, treatment with 1% Triton X-100 (Sigma-Aldrich) / 0.26% EDTA / 0.69% tris for 6 hours, solution exchange for another 16 hours, and treatment with 0.1% peracetic acid / 4% ethanol (Rochester Midland) for 2 Hour.

All chemical exposures were performed with stirring at 300 rpm on an orbital shaker. The skin ECM was the...

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application 62 / 817,787, filed March 13, 2019, and U.S. Provisional Application 62 / 950,565, filed December 19, 2019, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to the field of hydrogels, in particular to acoustic ECM hydrogels fabricated from mammalian extracellular matrix (ECM) using ultrasound and uses thereof. Background technique [0004] Hydrogels composed of purified ECM components such as collagen, hyaluronic acid, silk fibroin, laminin, and fibronectin have been widely used in tissue engineering applications. However, these purified single-component ECM biomaterials lack the complex biochemistry of native tissue ECM. Decellularization of whole tissues or organs provides an alternative method of harvesting ECM that preserves the biochemistry of native tissue ECM. A major advance...
