Abstract excerpt
Stem and progenitor cells are emerging as a potential source for cell-based therapies, in which large homogenous populations of differentiated cells are frequently deemed necessary for efficacy. Methods focused on biochemical cues have not yet yielded the numbers of endothelial cells thought necessary for cardiovascular applications. Interest in alternate methods has prompted the study of physical cues on stem...
