[EN] Cells interact mechanically with their environment, exerting mechanical forces that probe the extracellular matrix (ECM). The mechanical properties of the ECM determine cell behavior and control cell differentiation ...
[EN] Gelatin-hyaluronic acid (Gel-HA) hybrid hydrogels have been proposed as matrices for tissue engineering because of their ability to mimic the architecture of the extracellular matrix. Our aim was to explore whether ...
[EN] Poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) microfibers were surface functionalized by graft photopolymerization of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) onto the fiber surface. Grafted fibers were easily dispersed in enzymatically gelling ...
