QHREDGS enhances tube formation, metabolism and survival of endothelial cells in collagen-chitosan hydrogels.
Cell survival in complex, vascularized tissues, has been implicated as a major bottleneck in advancement of therapies based on cardiac tissue engineering. This limitation motivates the search for small, inexpensive molecules that would simultaneously be cardio-protective and vasculogenic. Here, we p...
