Abstract:Endometrial injury is a major cause of infertility and recurrent miscarriage. However, no clinically available methods currently exist to effectively repair the damaged endometrium. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have emerged as a promising therapeutic approach for promoting tissue regeneration, yet a biocompatible scaffold capable of delivering MSCs and supporting their growth is needed. Herein, the study reports a peptide hydrogel scaffold, self‐assembled from a peptide IVK8‐RGD consisting of an ionic complem… Show more
