Enoki‐Inspired Microfibers and Extracellular Matrix Enhance Biaxially Interlocking Interfaces

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Enoki-Inspired Microfibers In article number 2400193, Jingwei Xie and co-workers develop a biaxially interlocking interface inspired by diverse natural structures. It connects electrostatically flocked substrates and strengthens mechanical integrity with enoki-shaped microfibers and deposited extracellular matrix. This interface shows potential for engineering interfacial tissues, modeling tissue interfaces, exploring tissue-tissue interactions, and enabling tissue bridging or binding.
