“…Fibroin is extracted from the cocoons of the silkworm Bombyx mori and, in addition to having excellent properties in terms of biocompatibility, mechanical properties, and degradation, can be processed to generate scaffolds in different formats, such as hydrogels, films, or fibers [ 16 ]. In addition, and taking advantage of the reactive groups present in its structure, such as amines in the side chains of the lysine residues or in the N-termini of the proteins, it is possible to biofunctionalize the material with different bioactive molecules [ 17 ]. The usage of biofunctionalized fibers allows exploiting the paradigm of biocompatibility [ 18 ], in which it is established that the interaction of specific cell lineages with the biomolecules present at the surface of the material determines the response of the organism to the implant.…”
