Herein we describe a small-diameter vascular graft constructed from rolled human amniotic membrane (hAM), with in vitro evaluation and subsequent in vivo assessment of its mechanical and initial biological viability in the early post-implantation period. This approach for graft construction allows for customization of graft dimensions, with wide-ranging potential clinical applicability as a non-autologous, allogeneic, cell-free graft material. Acellular hAM were rolled into layered conduits (3.2-mm diameter) that were bound with fibrin and lyophilized. Constructs were seeded with human smooth muscle cells (SMC) and cultured under controlled arterial hemodynamic conditions. SMC were shown to adhere to, proliferate within, and remodel the scaffold over a four-week culture period. At the end of the culture period, there was histologic and biomechanical evidence of graft wall layer coalescence. The acellular hAM conduits were surgically implanted as arterial interposition grafts into the carotid arteries of immunocompetent rabbits. Grafts demonstrated patency over four weeks (n=3) with no hyperacute rejection or thrombotic occlusion. Explants displayed histologic evidence of active cellular remodeling, with endogenous cell repopulation of the graft wall concurrent with degradation of initial graft material. Cells were shown to align circumferentially to resemble a vascular medial layer. The vascular grafts were shown to provide a supportive scaffold allowing for cellular infiltration and remodeling by host cell populations in vivo. Using this approach, “off-the-shelf” vascular grafts can be created with specified diameters and wall thicknesses to satisfy specific anatomical requirements in diverse patient populations.
