Chung C, Lampe K, Heilshorn S
Biomacromolecules . 2012 Nov; 13(12):3912-6. PMID: 23151175
Native tissues provide cells with complex, three-dimensional (3D) environments comprised of hydrated networks of extracellular matrix proteins and sugars. By mimicking the dimensionality of native tissue while deconstructing the effects...
