Table 2. Summary of the Synthetic ECMs Based on the Polymers.
polymer basis | fabrication of the ECMs |
---|---|
polyethylene glycol | functionalized with arginylglycylaspartic acid and laminin-111 |
nanocellulose | carboxylated and functionalized with cell-adhesive peptides and then cross-linked with cations (such as Ca2+ and Mg2+) |
blended with type I collagen as a hybrid matrix | |
alginate | gelated by cross-linking with Ca2+ |
hyaluronic acid | formation of hydrazone bond between modified HA and modified benzaldehyde biopolymers |
polylactic-co-glycolic acid | PLGA nanoparticles blended with Matrigel as a hybrid matrix |
