Previously, we focused on the development and practical application of artificial tissues using \u201cin-body tissue architecture (iBTA)\u201d, a technique that uses living bodies as bioreactors. This study aimed to further develop iBTA by fabricating tissues with diverse shapes and evaluating their physical properties. Although the breaking strength increased with tissue thickness, the nominal breaking stress increased with thinner tissues. By carving narrow grooves on the outer periphery of an inner core with narrow grooves, we fabricated approximately 2.2 m long cord-shaped tissues and net-shaped tissues with various designs. By assembling the two inner cores inside the branched stainless-steel pipes, a large graft with branching was successfully fabricated, and its aortic arch replacement was conducted in a donor goat without causing damage. In conclusion, by applying iBTA technology, we have made it possible, for the first time, to create tissues of various shapes and designs that are difficult using existing tissue-engineering techniques. Thicker iBTA-induced tissues exhibited higher rupture strength; however, rupture stress was inversely proportional to thickness. These findings broaden the range of iBTA-induced tissue applications.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/bioengineering11060598","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,12]],"date-time":"2024-06-12T04:15:27Z","timestamp":1718165727000},"page":"598","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Diverse Shape Design and Physical Property Evaluation of In-Body Tissue Architecture-Induced Tissues"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5304-9703","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tsutomu","family":"Tajikawa","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mechanical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering Science, Kansai University, Osaka 564-8680, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yota","family":"Sekido","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate School of Science and Engineering, Kansai University, Osaka 564-8680, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8608-7888","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kazuki","family":"Mori","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Oita University Hospital, Oita 879-5593, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1631-8497","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Takayuki","family":"Kawashima","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Oita University Hospital, Oita 879-5593, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yumiko","family":"Nakashima","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Oita University Hospital, Oita 879-5593, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4972-0717","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shinji","family":"Miyamoto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Oita University Hospital, Oita 879-5593, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4466-3629","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yasuhide","family":"Nakayama","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Osaka Laboratory, Biotube Co., Ltd., Osaka 565-0842, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"141","article-title":"Heart valve regeneration","volume":"94","author":"Mayer","year":"2005","journal-title":"Adv.
