Synovial fluid-inspired biomimetic lubricating microspheres: Zwitterionic polyelectrolyte brushes-grafted microgels
Abstract Synovial fluid is made up of various biomacromolecules, including hyaluronic acid, aggrecans, lubricins, and phosphatidylcholine lipid, which are assembled onto the surface of articular cartilage in a gel state. Among them, brush-like biomacromolecules or assemblies have a vital effect on h...
