Glycosaminoglycan-Inspired Biomaterials for the Development of Bioactive Hydrogel Networks

Glycosaminoglycan-Inspired Biomaterials for the Development of Bioactive Hydrogel Networks

Glycosaminoglycans (GAG) are long, linear polysaccharides that display a wide range of relevant biological roles. Particularly, in the extracellular matrix (ECM) GAG specifically interact with other biological molecules, such as growth factors, protecting them from proteolysis or inhibiting factors....
