Biologically compatible vascular grafts are urgently required. The scaffoldless multi-layered wall is considered to offer theoretical advantages, such as facilitating cells form cell-cell and cell-matrix junctions natural extracellular matrix networks. Simple methods desired for fabricating physiological tissue-engineered grafts. Here, we showed that periodic hydrostatic pressurization under hypoxia (HP/HYP) facilitated the fabrication of tunica media entirely from human smooth muscle cells....
