Smooth Muscle Cell Functionality on Collagen Immobilized Polycaprolactone Nanowire Surfaces
Inhibition of smooth muscle cell (SMC) proliferation and preservation of a differentiated state are important aspects in the management, avoidance and progression of vascular diseases. An understanding of the interaction between SMCs and the biomaterial involved is essential for a successful implan...
