Abstract

Poly(amidoamine)s are biocompatible biodegradable polymers, which can be easily functionalized with a no. of bioactive and biomimetic compds. Co-polymn. of these polymers with 4-aminobutyl guanidine (agmatine) leads to an RGD mimicking structure. Hydrogels based on this structure showed an enhanced cell adhesion and could be chem. linked to a glass substrate to create a bioadhesive support for cell growth. Preliminary optimization and cell adhesion tests on Madin-Darby Canine Kidney cells were performed, both on functionalized and non-functionalized structures, with promising results
