Directing phenotype of vascular smooth muscle cells using electrically stimulated conducting polymer.

Biomaterials - 1 Dec 2008

Rowlands Andrew S, Cooper-White Justin J

Abstract excerpt

Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) isolated from rabbit aorta and immortalised A7r5 cells were cultured on conducting polypyrrole (PPy) substrates and were subjected to a 50muA sinusoidal electrical stimulation at 0.05, 5 and 500 Hz. These substrates were doped with hyaluronic acid and coated with collagen IV followed by Matrigel in order to mimic the basement membrane and encourage cell attachment. Increased...
