Fig 1 Implantation of cell-seeded polyurethane valve leaflets. (A) Valve leaflet mounted in holder (arrow), which is used for manipulation both during cell culture and surgery. (B) Holder and trimmed leaflet shown with handle in place. (C) Sutures prepared on valve sewing annulus while still in holder, resulting in (D) implantation with minimal handling of seeded valve.

Fig 6 Appearance of pulmonary polyurethane valve leaflet explants. (A) Gross examination of explants of blood outgrowth endothelial cell–seeded polyurethane-cholesterol leaflets (30 days), showing translucent surfaces with no gross abnormalities, and of (B) 30-day explants of unseeded polyurethane leaflets, showing gross organized thrombi extending to the cusp surface. Immunostaining for CD41/CD61, a marker of activated platelets, showed no immunoreactivity on the intact endothelium of seeded polyurethane-cholesterol 30-day explant (C), but highly positive areas (brown) on unseeded explants (D). (E through G) Fluorescent micrographs of explanted polyurethane leaflets. Nuclei shown by en face 4,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole mount of representative 30-day blood outgrowth endothelial cell–seeded polyurethane-cholesterol (E) and 30-day polyurethane-cholesterol leaflets (F). Phase-contrast bright-field examination of blood outgrowth endothelial cell–seeded explant (G), shown merged with 4,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole fluorescent micrograph of nuclei, showing an organized flow-related orientation of retained blood outgrowth endothelial cells as indicated by white arrow. (H) Hematoxylin and eosin stain of 30-day unseeded polyurethane explant showing only inflammatory cells, including monocyte/macrophages and giant cells. Magnifications of C and D are ×650, E–G are ×200, and H is ×400.

Fig 7 Quantitation of cells adhering to pulmonary valve leaflet replacement explants, compared with seeded handling control. Explanted leaflets were 4,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole mounted en face, and the number of nuclei found in representative ×200 fields was counted. Blood outgrowth endothelial cell–seeded polyurethane-cholesterol (Chol-PU) leaflets had significantly more cells than unseeded leaflets of any configuration (*p ≤ 0.005), and not significantly fewer than did unimplanted handling controls. (PU = polyurethane.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery 2006 81, 47-55DOI: (10.1016/j.athoracsur.2005.07.061) Copyright © 2006 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

Fig 8 Characterization of cells adhering to blood outgrowth endothelial cell–seeded polyurethane-cholesterol pulmonary valve leaflet explants. Comparison of cross section of unimplanted blood outgrowth endothelial cell-seeded polyurethane-cholesterol leaflet (A) versus en face 30-day explant (B) and cross section of 90-day explant (C), using immunostaining (brown) for von Willebrand’s factor, demonstrating a persistent endothelial phenotype. (Aa), (B), and (Ca) show strongly positive results, compared with negative immunoglobin G controls (Ab and Cb). Magnification ×400.
