Summary
The Institute of Chemistry of New Materials has developed multilayer coatings for modifying surgical meshes in order to immobilize viable mesenchymal stem cells on them. The key influence on cell adhesion is exerted by the elastic properties of multilayer films. The Institute is looking for partners to organize work within the framework of an agreement on scientific and technical cooperation.
Description
Ultra-thin coatings (thickness <100 nm) based on polysaccharides (chitosan, pectin, dextran, carboxymethylcellulose) ensure effective adhesion (attachment) of mesenchymal stem cells in a viable state. The relationship between the physicochemical characteristics of ultrathin biopolymer films and the ability of mesenchymal stem cells to form on their surface a monolayer culture of fibroblast-like cells with high viability (at least 95% of viable cells) has been established.

The developed multilayer coatings can be used for modification of surgical meshes in order to immobilize viable mesenchymal stem cells on them.
Advantages and Innovations
The relationship between the properties and composition of ultrathin biopolymer multilayer films and the adhesion and functioning of mesenchymal stem cells on them has been established. It has been proven that the key effect on cell adhesion is exerted by the elastic properties of multilayer films.
