DYNAMIC CONTROL OF HYDROGEL PROPERTIES VIA ENZYMATIC REACTIONS
Two Systems were designed. The first permits tunable on-demand softening of a hydrogel network. The second permits reversible on demand ligand exchange within a hydrogel network. Both means were shown to be cytocompatible and their uses demonstrated in cell culture of mesenchymal stem cells and 3T3 fibroblast cells.
