  • Patent number: 10828337
    Abstract: Materials and methods are disclosed for controlling vasculogenesis using building blocks of a collagen matrix and endothelial colony forming cells (ECFC). The building blocks may be isolated by fractionating an acid soluble Type I collagen. The building blocks comprising monomers and/or oligomers may be recombined in desired ratios to alter the matrix microenvironment and to influence ECFC behavior.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 7, 2018
    Date of Patent: November 10, 2020
    Assignee: Indiana University Research and Technology Corporation
    Inventors: Mervin C. Yoder, Paul Critser, Sherry Voytik-Harbin
