Figure 6.
Nanogel-programmed surface for cell inhibition. (a) Upper panel: flow cytometry histograms of smooth muscle cells (SMCs). Lower panel: bright field and fluorescence images of SMCs that were co-incubated with the dynamic surfaces. The surface was treated with nanogels with (+) or without (−) Dox. Scale bar: 100 μm. (b) Fluorescence images of SMCs that were stained with Hoechst 33342 and Calcein AM after 72-h incubation with the dynamic surface. Scale bar: 100 μm. (c) Analysis of cell viability using MTT assay. Error bar: standard deviation (n = 3). *** indicates p < 0.001.
