Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="adma201404787-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>Structured hydrogels</bold> showing form stability and elastic properties individually tailorable on different length scales are accessible in a one‐step process. They support cell adhesion and differentiation and display growing pore size during degradation. In vivo experiments demonstrate their efficacy in biomaterial‐induced bone regeneration, not requiring addition of cells or growth factors. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgj70bdvt1" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
