Cyclo(RGDfK) Functionalized Spider Silk Cell Scaffolds: Significantly Improved Performance in Just One Click (2020)
Journal Article
Harvey, D., Bray, G., Zamberlan, F., Amer, M., Goodacre, S. L., & Thomas, N. R. (2020). Cyclo(RGDfK) Functionalized Spider Silk Cell Scaffolds: Significantly Improved Performance in Just One Click. Macromolecular Bioscience, https://doi.org/10.1002/mabi.202000255

Recombinant spider silk has the potential to provide a new generation of biomaterial scaffolds as a result of its degree of biocompatibility and lack of immunogenicity. These recombinant biomaterials are, however, reported to exhibit poor cellular ad...
