  • Publication number: 20210353825
    Abstract: Tissue repair and restoration can be performed using an elastic material formed from tropoelastin. The elastic material can be formed by providing a solution of tropoelastin monomers, applying the solution to a surface, and heating the solution on the surface in absence of a cross-linking agent to enable the tropoelastin monomers to bind to each other to form an elastic material that does not dissociate into tropoelastin monomers when the elastic material is contacted with an aqueous solution.

  • Publication number: 20190275204
    Abstract: This invention provides a method for producing a device having elastic fiber arranged thereon. The method includes maintaining a cell culture including cells (for example, fibroblasts), cell medium and tropoelastin in conditions enabling the cells to form elastic fiber from the tropoelastin, and contacting a device with the cell culture to enable elastic fiber formed by the cells to be deposited onto the device, thereby producing a device having elastic fibers arranged thereon.
