In-Situ Formation of Growth-Factor-Loaded Coacervate Microparticle-Embedded Hydrogels for Directing Encapsulated Stem Cell Fate

The spontaneous formation of coacervate microdroplet‐laden photo‐crosslinked hydrogels derived from the simple mixing of oxidized, methacrylated alginate (OMA) and methacrylated gelatin (GelMA) enables simultaneous creation of drug‐laden microdroplets and encapsulation of stem cells in photopolymeri...

Zusammenfassung:The spontaneous formation of coacervate microdroplet‐laden photo‐crosslinked hydrogels derived from the simple mixing of oxidized, methacrylated alginate (OMA) and methacrylated gelatin (GelMA) enables simultaneous creation of drug‐laden microdroplets and encapsulation of stem cells in photopolymerized coacervate hydrogels under physiological conditions. This can be utilized as a novel platform for in situ formation of localized, sustained bioactive molecule delivery to encapsulate stem cells for therapeutic applications.
