RGDS was successfully immobilized on the PLLA scaffolds via plasma treatment. It was observed that the immobilized RGDS promoted attachment of ROS cells to PLLA. Also, more cells were found in the RGDS-modified scaffold than in the unmodified scaffold, tending to form mineralized foci. The results s

In the present work, cell-specific peptides were immobilized on chitosan and PLA scaffolds. The amount of immobilization, determined by HPLC, was confirmed to be in the effective range. Results from cultures of human fetal skin fibroblasts, rat osteosarcoma, and periodontal fibroblasts demonstrated
