Temperature-dependent binding of growth factors and cells to a heparin-immobilized thermoresponsive surface

摘要

A heparin-immobilized thermoresponsive cell culture surface facilitated temperature-controlled capture and release of heparin-binding EGF and hepatocytes. A cultivation technology using the heparin-immobilized thermoresponsive cell culture surface is considered to have a potential to provide transplantable liver tissues with maintaining hepatic functions.
