Tissue-engineered heart valves can be an alternative to prosthetic valves in heart valve replacement; however, they are not fully efficient in terms of long-lasting functionality as leaflets in engineered valves do not possess the native trilayered leaflet structure. Previously, we developed flat, trilayered, oriented nanofibrous (TN) scaffolds mimicking the trilayered structure and orientation of native heart valve leaflets. In-vivo tissue engineering – a practical regenerative medicine technology – can be used to develop autologous heart valves. Thus, in this study, we used our flat, trilayered, oriented nanofibrous scaffolds to develop trilayered tissue structures with native leaflet orientations through in-vivo tissue engineering in a rat model. After two months of in-vivo tissue engineering, infiltrated cells and their deposited collagen fibrils were found aligned in the circumferential and radial layers, and randomly oriented in the random layer of the scaffolds; i.e., trilayered tissue constructs (TTCs) were developed. The tensile properties of the TTCs were higher than that of the control tissue constructs (without any scaffolds) due to the influence of fibers of the scaffolds in tissue engineering. Different extracellular matrix components – collagen, glycosaminoglycans and elastin that exist in native leaflets were observed in the TTCs. Gene expression of the cells in the TTCs indicated that the tissue constructs were in the growing stage. There was no sign of calcification in the tissue constructs. Thus, the TTCs developed with the flat TN scaffolds signify that autologous leaflet-shaped, trilayered tissue constructs that can function as native leaflets can be developed.
