Application
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a linear polysaccharide of alternating D-glucuronic acid and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine found primarily in connective tissues. HA based hydrogels are widely used in tissue engineering, 3D bioprinting, and drug deliery applications. The methacrylate functionalized hyaluronic acid is photo-crosslinkable, and can be used to generate crosslinked hydrogels.

Tissue engineering. Part A, 15(2), 243-254 (2009-02-06)
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent progenitor cells whose plasticity and self-renewal capacity have generated significant interest for applications in tissue engineering. The objective of this study was to investigate MSC chondrogenesis in photo-cross-linked hyaluronic acid (HA) hydrogels. Because HA

Encapsulation of mammalian cells within hydrogels has great utility for a variety of applications ranging from tissue engineering to cell-based assays. In this work, we present a technique to encapsulate live cells in three-dimensional (3D) microscale hydrogels (microgels) of controlled
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 110(25), 10117-10122 (2013-06-05)
Methacrylated hyaluronic acid (HA) hydrogels provide a backbone polymer with which mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can interact through several cell surface receptors that are expressed by MSCs, including CD44 and CD168. Previous studies showed that this 3D hydrogel environment supports
Tissue engineering. Part A, 16(8), 2675-2685 (2010-04-15)
Bioprinting by the codeposition of cells and biomaterials is constrained by the availability of printable materials. Herein we describe a novel macromonomer, a new two-step photocrosslinking strategy, and the use of a simple rapid prototyping system to print a proof-of-concept
