Abstract excerpt
Host responses to a biomaterial critically influence its in vivo performance. Biomaterial architectures that can recruit endogenous host stem cells could be beneficial in tissue regeneration or integration. Here, we report that the fibrous topography of biomaterials promotes the recruitment of host mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) by facilitating the macrophage phenotype transition from M1-to-M2. Electrospun poly...
