In situ blood vessel regeneration using neuropeptide substance P‐conjugated small‐diameter vascular grafts

In situ blood vessel regeneration through host stem/progenitor cell mobilization may hold great promise for vascular reconstruction. Neuropeptide substance P (SP) has been shown to accelerate tissue repair by endogenous cell mobilization and recruitment. This study was aimed to evaluate the vascular regeneration potential of SP and heparin co‐tethered vascular grafts. Polycaprolactone (PCL), PCL/SP‐conjugated poly(L‐lactide‐co‐ε‐caprolactone)...
