摘要

Step-growth, radically mediated thiol-norbornene photopolymerization is used to create versatile, stimuli-responsive poly(ethylene glycol)-co-peptide hydrogels The reaction is cytocompatible and allows for the encapsulation of human mesenchymal stem cells with a viability greater than 95%. Cellular spreading is dictated via three-dimensional biochemical photopatterning. Copyright © 2009 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.
