In vitro evaluation of bi-layer silk fibroin scaffolds for gastrointestinal tissue engineering

Silk fibroin scaffolds were investigated for their ability to support attachment, proliferation, and differentiation of human gastrointestinal epithelial and smooth muscle cell lines in order to ascertain their potential for tissue engineering. A bi-layer silk fibroin matrix composed of a porous sil...
