Stiffness of Aligned Fibers Regulates the Phenotypic Expression of Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells
24 Jan 2019
Abstract excerpt
Electrospun uniaxially aligned ultrafine fibers show great promise in constructing vascular grafts mimicking the anisotropic architecture of native blood vessels. However, understanding how the stiffness of aligned fibers would impose influences on the functionality of vascular cells has yet to be explored. The present study aimed to explore the stiffness effects of electrospun aligned fibrous substrates (AFSs)...
