Response of micro- and macrovascular endothelial cells to starch-based fiber meshes for bone tissue engineering

The establishment of a functional vasculature is as yet an unrealized milestone in bone reconstruction therapy. For this study, fibermesh scaffolds obtained from a blend of starch and poly(caprolactone) (SPCL), that have previously been shown to be an excellent material for the proliferation and dif...
