Polydopamine Functionalization: A Smart and Efficient Way to Improve Host Responses to e-PTFE Implants

Polydopamine Functionalization: A Smart and Efficient Way to Improve Host Responses to e-PTFE Implants

Among the different materials used as protheses for the treatment of Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia, expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (e-PTFE) plays a leading role owing to its mechanical properties as explained in the first part of this review. However, this material is poorly cell adhesive, which...
