| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Matrigel is one of the extensive and common cell culture matrices, which promotes cell adhesion and maintains the pluripotency of stem cells. The major component of Matrigel is laminin, a multi-functional extracellular matrix protein. Multi-laminin derived active peptides conjugated polysaccharide matrices are explored to develop the cell adhesive matrix that is mimicking the function of Matrigel. The biological activities of multi-peptide-polysaccharide matrices could control by the optimized selection and mixture ratios of different active peptides. These findings are critical to design the Matrigel mimicked biomaterials.
