DIRECTING STEM CELL FATE IN 3D THROUGH CELL INERT AND ADHESIVE DIBLOCK COPOLYMER DOMAINS

摘要

Different surface mixtures can be distinguished by macro-and nano-scopic metrics and reflect previously documented ECM adhesion heterogeneity which current materials typically lack. Cell adhesion shows similar behavior and ongoing work to assess stem cell differentiation may also indicate the importance of this design criteria in future regenerative approaches.
