medicine | alginate hydrogels can be enzymatically degraded in a controlled and tunable fashion by incorporating poly(lactide-co-glycolide) microspheres loaded with alginate lyase into alginate hydrogels. Neural progenitor cells can be cultured and expanded in vitro in this degradable alginate hydrogel system. A significant increase in the expansion rate of neural progenitor cells cultured in degrading alginate hydrogels versus neural progenitor cells cultured in standard, i.e. non-degrading, alginate hydrogels. Degradable alginate hydrogels encapsulating stem cells may be widely applied to develop novel therapies for tissue regeneration | Homo sapiens |
