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