The cell microenvironment has emerged as a key determinant of cell behavior and function
in development, physiology, and pathophysiology. The extracellular matrix (ECM) within the …

Photo-crosslinkable hydrogels have recently attracted significant scientific interest. Their
properties can be manipulated in a spatiotemporal manner through exposure to light to …

Background Adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) hold great promise for regenerative
medicine because of their self-renewal, multipotency, and trophic and immunosuppressive …

This review highlights the synthesis, properties, and advanced applications of synthetic and
natural polymers 3D printed using stereolithography for soft tissue engineering applications …

The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a dynamic environment that constantly provides physical
and chemical cues to embedded cells. Much progress has been made in engineering …

Adaptable hydrogels have recently emerged as a promising platform for three‐dimensional
(3D) cell encapsulation and culture. In conventional, covalently crosslinked hydrogels …

Hydrogels, microgels and nanogels have emerged as versatile and viable platforms for
sustained protein release, targeted drug delivery, and tissue engineering due to excellent …

Cells actively sense and process mechanical information that is provided by the extracellular
environment to make decisions about growth, motility and differentiation. It is important to …

ABSTRACT Thiol–norbornene (thiol–ene) photoclick hydrogels have emerged as a diverse
material system for tissue engineering applications. These hydrogels are crosslinked …

The extracellular matrix (ECM) constitutes a viscoelastic environment for cells. A growing
body of evidence suggests that the behavior of cells cultured in naturally-derived or synthetic …
