Engineering the viscoelasticity of gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogels via small “dynamic bridges” to regulate BMSC behaviors for osteochondral regeneration

The dynamic extracellular matrix (ECM) constantly affects the behaviors of cells. To mimic the dynamics of ECM with controllable stiffness and energy dissipation, this study proposes a strategy in which a small molecule, 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde (DB), was used as fast “dynamic bridges'’ to con...
