Phase separation, pore structure, and properties of nanofibrous gelatin scaffolds
Xiaohua Liu,Peter X. Ma +1 more
TL;DR: A processing technique has been developed to create 3D nanofibrous gelatin (NF-gelatin) scaffolds, which mimic both the physical architecture and the chemical composition of natural collagen, which are excellent scaffolds for tissue engineering.

Heparin Binding Nanostructures to Promote Growth of Blood Vessels
Kanya Rajangam,Heather A. Behanna,Michael J. Hui,Xiaoqiang Han,James F. Hulvat,Jon W. Lomasney,Samuel I. Stupp +6 more
TL;DR: Heparin, a biopolymer that binds to angiogenic growth factors, was used to nucleate the self-assembly of nanostructures from designed peptide amphiphile molecules, which yields rigid nanofibers that display heparin chains to orient proteins for cell signaling.
