MSC-hMVEC co-culture (A) Schematic showing the procedure for co-culturing PEG encapsulated MSCs and hMVECs on matrigel (B) Confocal images of fluorescent beads embedded into PEGDA islands showing top view (left) and profile. PEGDA islands can also be formed into irregular letters. Scale bars are 500μm (C) Fluorescence image of MSCs captured in a PEG grid. Scale bar is 5mm (D) Brightfield images of hMVECs at the surface of matrigel after 8 hours of co-culture. Dotted outline indicates PEG island; pink arrows indicate tube formation; white arrow indicates rounded cells. Scale bar is 1mm.
