Biomimicking polysaccharide nanofibers promote vascular phenotypes : a potential application for vascular tissue engineering
The potential of electrospun pullulan/dextran (P/D) nanofibers (average diameter = 323 nm) for vascular tissue engineering applications is explored. The mechanical properties of the nanofibers are of the same order of magnitude as that of human arteries (Young's modulus ≈0.88 MPa; tensile stren...
