Dynamic Stiffening to Improve Vasculogenesis of hiPSC-Derived Endothelial Progenitors

Brett Stern, Jiwan Han, Kathleen N. Halwachs…·Janet Zoldan

This study shows that dynamically adjusting hydrogel stiffness during vasculogenesis improves vascular network formation, while late stiffening disrupts it, with effects mediated by FAK and Rho kinase.
