Biofunctionalization of titanium with PEG and anti-CD34 for hemocompatibility and stimulated endothelialization

Selective recovery of Pd(II) from extremely acidic solution using ion-imprinted chitosan fiber: Adsorption performance and mechanisms

“…As reported in literature, the peak around 1400 cm −1 is assigned to >N C S group in thiourea [31]. However, the peak at 1375 cm −1 , which should be assigned to CH 3 asymmetrical flexural vibrations in acetyl groups [32,33], was observed in both spectra of NIF and IIF, even in that of Pd(II)-loaded IIF. It confirmed that thiourea was not modified onto the IIF.…”

Strategies and Techniques to Enhance theIn SituEndothelialization of Small-Diameter Biodegradable Polymeric Vascular Grafts

“…[60][61][62][63] Anti-CD34 end-grafted to covalently immobilized PEG on titanium stents to enhance EPC migration and proliferation to improve endothelialization. 62 Similarly, anti-CD34 antibodies have been immobilized on a heparin/ collagen coating for a stent, accelerating the attachment of cells and expediting endothelialization. 61 While CD34 antibodies bind to EPCs, some debate remains asserting that solely recruiting CD34 cells can be detrimental to long-term graft patency.…”

Multifunctional biomaterial coatings: synthetic challenges and biological activity

“…However, the PEG-induced anti-fouling effect also disturbed spreading and proliferation of these cells, which indicates the complicated adjustment of the balance between cellattracting and -repellent effects. Smooth muscle cells and platelets were successfully not attracted by the coated surface (Chen et al, 2012). In Figure 5F it is schematically shown how the interaction between ECM-molecules bound to streptavidin can be studied in a bioinert background.…”
