Decellularized Plants: Biofunctionalized Plants as Diverse Biomaterials for Human Cell Culture (Adv. Healthcare Mater. 8/2017)
Year: 2017
Type: article
Abstract: In article number 1601225, human dermal fibroblasts seeded on a decellularized parsley stem are described by William L. Murphy and co-workers. Plant tissues can be decellularized and biofunctionalized to allow adhesion of human cells. These adaptable scaffolds possess elevated hydrophilicity and excellent water transport abilities innate of plant tissues. These scaffolds were shown to enable efficient expansion of human cells for prolonged periods of culture.
