    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a conduit comprising a tubular structure comprising a porous biocompatible polymer embedded in a biocompatible extracellular matrix material and an internal luminal space, and a method of making the conduit. The conduit is for use in devices such as artificial tissues and organs. The method of making the conduit may comprise providing a tubular structure having an Internal luminal space and comprising a porous biocompatible polymer, perfusing the pores and luminal space of the tubular structure with a first solution, replacing the first solution by perfusing the pores and luminal space of the tubular structure with the aqueous solution comprising liquified extracellular matrix material, and embedding the tubular structure in extracellular matrix material by polymerizing the liquified extracellular matrix material to form the conduit.

    Abstract: Disclosed are compositions and methods of regenerating or enhancing dialysate. Specifically, provided is a dialysate regeneration or enhancement component having a membrane with luminal spaces on each side wherein dialysate is circulated on one side of the membrane and waste dialysate is circulated on the other side. Renal tubule epithelial cells embedded on the membrane transport water, glucose, electrolytes, amino acids and other beneficial compounds from the waste dialysate across a membrane into unused dialysate, thereby reducing the amount of dialysate needed for peritoneal dialysis or enhancing the dialysate.
