Development of biomimetic and smart coatings based on elastin-like polymers containing RGD cell attachment sequences

[Excerpt] Elastin-like polymers (ELPs) are based on repeating sequences found in the natural elastin. They show remarkable combination of properties, such as a large range of mechanical properties, excellent biocompatibility, and smart behaviour and self-assembly towards temperature, pH and often di...
