Nano-micrometer surface roughness gradients reveal topographical influences on differentiating responses of vascular cells on biodegradable magnesium

Nano-micrometer surface roughness gradients reveal topographical influences on differentiating responses of vascular cells on biodegradable magnesium

Distinctively directing endothelial cells (ECs) and smooth muscle cells (SMCs), potentially by surface topography cue, is of central importance for enhancing bioefficacy of vascular implants. For the first time, surface gradients with a broad range of nano-micrometer roughness are developed on Mg, a...
