A New Approach of In Vivo Musculoskeletal Tissue Engineering Using the Epigastric Artery as Central Core Vessel of a 3-Dimensional Construct

Bioluminescence imaging of the BATs perfused (𝑛=4) and unperfused (𝑛=3) on day 1, 3, and 7 after myoblasts-transplantation in photons/second and standard deviation (SD). As no substrate (Luciferin) can reach the transfected myoblasts within the unperfused BAT inside the bioreactor chamber, only background signals can be detected.
