Hi Nathan!
Just did some experiments in decellularization two weeks ago. We were going to do a whole pig heart, but the heart we'd gotten was missing to much of the vasculature to do the perfusion.
We did get to try some health food store digestive enzymes on heart slices - both bromelain and papain worked pretty darn well. We didn't try to grow any cells on them afterwards, of course...
Here's some pics - still need to add a bunch more:
