pubmed:abstractText
Physical vapour deposition is used to coat vascular prostheses with pyrolytic carbon. This coating may facilitate the development of an endothelial monolayer in grafts implanted in laboratory animals. This in vitro study compared the adherence and growth of cultured porcine aortic endothelial cells (EC) seeded in vitro on carbon-coated Dacron, to uncoated prostheses. The cells were incubated at 5 x 10(4) cells/cm2. Progress was monitored at different times (TO + 2 hours, D 1, D 4, D 8) by microscopic observation, when cell counts were made; and by scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) to evaluate morphological EC-graft interactions. Cell adherence was independent of the carbon coating but cellular growth occurred only on carbon-coated Dacron. The SEM observations showed both the shape of the adherent cells, which were rounded on uncoated Dacron and extensively spread on carbon-coated prostheses, and the morphology of the carbon coating.
