Heparin-Modified Collagen Gels for Controlled Release of Pleiotrophin: Potential for Vascular Applications

Heparin-Modified Collagen Gels for Controlled Release of Pleiotrophin: Potential for Vascular Applications

A fast re-endothelialization, along with the inhibition of neointima hyperplasia, are crucial to reduce the failure of vascular bypass grafts. Implants modifications with molecules capable of speeding up the re-endothelialization process have been proposed over the last years. However, clinical tria...
