Schematic of proposed in vivo mechanism. Orthogonally self-assembled scaffolds recruit macrophages and release growth factors. Macrophages recruited to the implant resolve over the implant period, seguing the development of endothelial lined vessels (day 2) with supporting pericytes (day 5) and maturation into smooth-muscle-lined vessels (days 5–10).
