Integrin receptor-binding nanofibrous peptide hydrogel for combined mesenchymal stem cell therapy and nitric oxide delivery in renal ischemia/reperfusion injury

Abstract Background Mesenchymal-based therapy has been utilized as a practical approach in the treatment of renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. However, low cell retention and survival in the ischemic site have remained challenging issues. To bridge this gap, the integrin receptor-binding RGD p...
