Abstract
The data demonstrate the successful creation of an anatomically functional, autologous tissue-engineered pulmonary artery using coseeded progenitor cell sources. Labeled implanted stem cells persisted in the engineered construct, suggesting that in vitro seeding is necessary to engineer tissue. This study demonstrates an effective method to track multiple cell types after implantation.
