Tripeptide Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) modifies the molecular mechanical properties of the non-muscle myosin IIA in human bone marrow-derived myofibroblasts seeded in a collagen scaffold.

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were obtained from human bone marrow and amplified in cultures supplemented with human platelet lysate in order to generate myofibroblasts. When MSCs were seeded in solid collagen scaffolds, they differentiated into myofibroblasts that were observed to strongly bind to...
