Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Biopolymer silk fibroin was chemically modified with N,N'-diacetylchitobiose bearing N-acetylglcosamine (GlcNAc) using a coupling reagent to incorporate the vascular endothelial cell-binding GlcNAc site into silk fibroin. NMR measurements and the reaction with lectins confirmed the covalent incorporation of GlcNAc into silk fibroin. Attachment and growth of human umbilical vein endothelial cells on the modified silk fibroin were higher than those on silk fibroin. These results suggest that the incorporation of GlcNAc made silk fibroin suitable for vascular endothelial cell culture substrates.
