Device for constructing three-dimensional muscle tissue
A patent application (Publication Number: US20240026260A1) describes a device and method for constructing three-dimensional muscle tissue. The device includes a culture tank with connectors for culture medium inlet and outlet, support members, and muscle tissue anchors. Additionally, channel-forming members and a pump for supplying culture medium are included in the device. The method involves filling the culture space with a hydrogel containing skeletal myoblasts, solidifying the hydrogel, and culturing the skeletal myoblasts in a three-dimensional manner using the supplied culture medium.
The resulting three-dimensional muscle tissue comprises channels for transporting culture medium and muscle fibers oriented in the same direction. The patent claims specify the interval between channels, the parallel orientation of channels and muscle fibers, and the absence of heme in the tissue. This innovative approach to constructing muscle tissue offers potential applications in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, providing a platform for studying muscle development and function in a controlled environment. The precise design and methodology outlined in the patent application aim to enhance the production of functional muscle tissue for various research and therapeutic purposes.
