Abstract

In order to clarify how structures of fibrin are related to cellular attachment and how polymer materials affect cellular responses and fibrin structures, the responses of fibroblast (adhesion, growth and morphological changes) to fibrin fiber gel coated on sulfonated-polystyrene with varied negative charges were examined. It was found that negative charges on sulfonated-polystyrene surface affected fibrinogen-fibrin conversion, changed structures of fibrin gel formed on sulfonated-polystyrene and furthermore changed cellular responses. The results offer us fundamental informations about biomaterial design of artificial skin and artificial vessel.
