author keywords: collagen immobilization; genipin; scaffold; functionalization; surface modification; polylactic acid (PLA) fibers
MeSH headings : Cells, Cultured; Fibroblasts / cytology; Fibroblasts / metabolism; Humans; Iridoids / chemistry; Lactic Acid / chemistry; Materials Testing; Polyesters; Polymers / chemistry; Tissue Engineering; Tissue Scaffolds / chemistry
TL;DR: The collagen was immobilized on the surface of functionalized PLA via a novel natural cross-linking moleculegenipin which resulted in improved cell proliferation of human dermal fibroblasts as compared to the PLA surface coated with collagen without genipin. (via Semantic Scholar)
