Description générale

Heparin methacrylate (HepMa) is a functionalized natural polymer that can be used in 3D bioprinting and tissue engineering applications.

Heparin is a naturally occurring linear biopolymer and highly sulfated glycosaminoglycan (GAG). Research has demonstrated that heparin can modulate binding extracellular matrix proteins and sequester growth factors and cytokines, making them useful in 3D applications. The methacrylate-functionalization of heparin allows thermal or photochemical crosslinking via covalent conjugation. Heparins exhibit high anionic charge densities to promote large swelling ratios in water.

Application

Heparin based hydrogels are widely used in tissue engineering, 3D bioprinting, and drug delivery applications.

The emergence of flexible and stretchable electronic components expands the range of applications of electronic devices. Flexible devices are ideally suited for electronic biointerfaces because of mechanically permissive structures that conform to curvilinear structures found in native tissue. Most electronic

Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) hydrogels functionalized with heparin were utilized as a three-dimensional culture system for human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). Heparin-functionalized hydrogels supported hMSC viability, as quantified through live/dead imaging, and induced osteogenic differentiation, as measured by increased alkaline phosphatase
