A dual magnetic-pH-sensitive hydrogel-based scaffold was studied for optimization of a cell microenvironment by scaffold mechanical deformation and its biochemical response. In particular, the positions of the seeding cells and the concentration of potassium (K+) within the scaffold were optimized b...
