Scheme representing the approach utilizing degradable poly(ethylene glycol) macromers to localize GFP+ mMSC to the surface of decellularized bone allografts. Poly(ethylene glycol) macromer solutions (m=0, 1, 3, or 4; n=227; p=79) and custom molds were used to polymerize hydrogel-cell constructs around decellularized bone allografts creating a cell-laden tissue-like structure to emulate the native periosteum, i.e. a tissue engineered periosteum. GFP+ mMSC localization to the allograft surface was subsequently quantified in vitro and in vivo (murine segmental femoral graft model).
