Fluid Shear‐Controlled Pro/Anti‐Inflammatory Osteomodulatory Construct for Drug‐Free Immune Activation Through Cationic Ion Channel Activation

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A 3D‐printed PCL scaffold coated with Arginine was laminated with electrospun polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) nanofibers containing cationic cellulose nanocrystals (PVA@cCNC). This created nanoisland‐like regions of aligned and random cCNC‐rich fibers. The composite scaffold, under fluid shear stimulation, modulated macrophage polarization from M1 to M2 ...
