A heparin-modified thermoresponsive surface with heparin-binding epidermal growth factor-like growth factor for maintaining hepatic functions in vitro and harvesting hepatocyte sheets

A heparin-modified thermoresponsive surface with heparin-binding epidermal growth factor-like growth factor for maintaining hepatic functions in vitro and harvesting hepatocyte sheets

A heparin-modified thermoresponsive surface bound with heparin-binding epidermal growth factor-like growth factor (HB-EGF) was designed to allow creation of transferrable and functional hepatocyte sheets. A heparin-modified thermoresponsive surface was prepared by covalently tethering heparin onto p...
