Switchable Water‐Adhesive, Superhydrophobic Palladium‐Layered Silicon Nanowires Potentiate the Angiogenic Efficacy of Human Stem Cell Spheroids. (2nd September 2014) - Seo, Jungmok
Abstract A switchable water‐adhesive, superhydrophobic nanowire surface is developed for the formation of functional stem cell spheroids. The sizes of hADSC spheroids are readily controllable on the surface. Our surface increases cell‐cell and cell‐matrix interaction, which improves viability and paracrine secretion of the spheroids. Accordingly, the hADSC spheroids produced on the surface exhibit significantly enhanced angiogenic efficacy.
