The study of cell reaction to micro and nanotopography is dependent on the method of
manufacture available. Several methods of manufacture have been developed: polymer …

The natural cell environment provides a variety of chemical, topographical and mechanical
stimuli that contribute in regulating cell behavior and function. If considerable effort has been …

Cell–material interactions constitute a key fundamental topic in biomaterials study. Various
cell cues and matrix cues as well as soluble factors regulate cell behaviors on materials …

Aim: This article reports on studies conducted in the same laboratory on interactions
between patterned substrates with different pattern dimensions and chemistries, and various …

The current nano‐biotechnologies interfacing synthetic materials and cell biology requires a
better understanding of cell–surface interactions on the micro‐to‐nanometer scale. Cell …

(eg, changes in the cells' ability to spread) being transmitted through the cytoskeleton (the
spiders legs) to the nucleus (the spiders body); thus describing a percolation network [9] …

Extracellular matrix (ECM) cues have been widely investigated for their impact on cellular
behavior. Among mechanics, physics, chemistry, and topography, different ECM properties …

Two UV-curable polymers, ie, a star-shaped poly (ethylene glycol)(PEG) and a linear
perfluorinated polyether (PFPE), are investigated as novel biomaterials in a systematic study …

The interaction of cells with topographically patterned material surfaces can result in
changes in shape, function, and viability of the cells.[1] In particular, micrometer-sized …
