“…Amongst the natural polymers, proteins such as collagen/gelatin or serum albumins as well as carbohydrates including chitosan, alginate, dextran, hyaluronic acid or heparin are applied [474] , [499] , [510] , [522] , [525] , [526] . More complex ECM mimics are provided by working with decellularized ECMs, derived either directly from bone or BM or from cell culture [522] , [527] , [528] , [529] , [530] . While they can preserve the natural composition and 3D architecture of the ECM, their composition is hardly ever exactly known, hampering the interpretation of results in terms of connecting observed cellular responses to a single ECM derived stimulus [525] .…”
