Preparation and evaluation of a temperature-responsive methylcellulose/polyvinyl alcohol hydrogel for stem cell encapsulation

Cell delivery therapy holds great prospects in regenerative medicine. However, low cell survival and retention are still the main problems in current studies. To address these challenges, a temperature-sensitive hydrogel suitable for cell encapsulation was developed by mixing methylcellulose (MC) an...
