Characterization of a PLLA-Collagen I Blend Nanofiber Scaffold with Respect to Growth and Osteogenic Differentiation of Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells
The aim of this study was to enhance synthetic poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) nanofibers by blending with collagen I (COLI) in order to improve their ability to promote growth and osteogenic differentiation of stem cells in vitro. Fiber matrices composed of PLLA and COLI in different ratios were charact...
