Oligosachharide modified biomimetic surfactant polymer for non-thrombogenic interface applications: Platelet Adhesion Studies
Introduction The presence of proteoglycans, glycosaminoglycans and other glycosylated molecules is responsible for the inherent non-adhesive nature of the endothelial cell glycocalyx that prevents attachment of other cells and biomolecules to the intravascular endothelial cell lining . Mimicking such a sugar-rich structure for vascular interfacial biomaterials provides a way to prevent the clin...
متن کاملBiomimetic surfaces with controlled direction-dependent adhesion.
We propose a novel design of a biomimetic micro-structured surface, which exhibits controlled strongly direction-dependent adhesion properties. The micro-system consists of parallel elastic wall-like structures covered by a thin layer. Numerical calculations have been carried out to study the adhesive properties of the proposed system and to provide design criteria with the aim of obtaining opt...
متن کاملSimulation of biomimetic recognition between polymers and surfaces.
Many biological processes, such as transmembrane signaling and pathogen-host interactions, are initiated by a protein recognizing a specific pattern of binding sites on part of a membrane or cell surface. By recognition, we imply that the polymer quickly finds and then adsorbs strongly on the pattern-matched region and not on others. The development of synthetic systems that can mimic such reco...
متن کاملPlatelet adhesion studies on dipyridamole coated polyurethane surfaces.
Surface modification of polyurethanes (PUs) by covalent attachment of dipyridamole (Persantin) is known to reduce adherence of blood platelets upon exposure to human platelet rich plasma (PRP). This effect was investigated in further detail. First platelet adhesion under static conditions was studied with four different biomaterial surfaces: untreated PU, PU immobilised with conjugate molecule ...
متن کاملInterstitial pneumonia following exposure to fluorocarbon polymers
Perfluoroalkyl resins are compounds containing hydrophobic alkyl chains, which are partially or fully fluorinated. These resins are heat-resistant (up to 260°C) thermoplastics used as coatings in the metallurgical industry (because of their mechanical and anti-adhesive resistance), as waterproofing agents for coating fabric, in papers used in the food industry, and in surface-active products, w...
