Nanofabricated Biomaterials Model Tumor Extracellular Matrix Topography
Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.The unique structure and composition of the tumor microenvironment and its associated extracellular matrix (ECM) exert profound effects on cancer cell behavior that are difficult to model in vitro. This perspective discusses the utility of nanofabricated biosubstrates, such as the novel collagen‐coated nanogrooved array, for recapitulating the ...
