A switchable light-responsive azopolymer conjugating protein micropatterns with topography for mechanobiological studies

Stem cell shape and mechanical properties in vitro can be directed by geometrically defined micropatterned adhesion substrates. However, conventional methods are limited by the fixed micropattern design, which cannot recapitulate the dynamic changes of the natural cell microenvironment. Current meth...
