Engineering Extracellular Microenvironments: The Impact of Fibrous Materials on Cell Behavior

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Fibrous structures are key elements of the native extracellular matrix and crucial for directing cell behavior. This review discusses how fiber properties such as composition, diameter, and alignment affect cell responses in 2D and 3D systems. Strategies for integrating fibrous cues into engineered tissues are highlighted, and future directions for ...

Controlling Intestinal Organoid Polarity using Synthetic Dynamic Hydrogels Decorated with Laminin‐Derived IKVAV Peptides

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Design rules are presented to control intestinal organoid polarity in fully synthetic hydrogels. The laminin‐derived IKVAV sequence is crucial to obtain correct intestinal organoid polarity. Increasing hydrogel dynamics further supports the growth of correctly polarized intestinal organoids, while a bulk level of stiffness (G’ ≈ 0.7 kPa) is crucial to ...

Norbornene Homopolymerization Limits Cell Spreading in Thiol–Ene Photoclick Hydrogels

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Thiol–norbornene click reactions are often used in the development of cell‐permissive 3D hydrogels. However, ene–ene crosslinks in other thiol–ene systems are known to limit permissivity. This study demonstrates the negative effects of norbornene homopolymerization on 3D cell spreading and circumvents the issue by modulating polymer degree of ...
