The exciting properties of micro-and nano-patterned surfaces found in natural species hide
a virtually endless potential of technological ideas, opening new opportunities for innovation …

Materials patterned with high‐aspect‐ratio nanostructures have features on similar length
scales to cellular components. These surfaces are an extreme topography on the cellular …

Due to environmental and ethical concerns, meat analogs represent an emerging trend to
replace traditional animal meat. However, meat analogs lacking specific sensory properties …

Cell-substrate interactions play a crucial role in the design of better biomaterials and
integration of implants with the tissues. Adhesion is the binding process of the cells to the …

The current development of nanobiotechnologies requires a better understanding of cell–
surface interactions on the nanometre scale. Recently, advances in nanoscale patterning …

In the process of bone regeneration, new bone formation is largely affected by physico-
chemical cues in the surrounding microenvironment. Tissue cells reside in a complex …

The aim of this study was to investigate fibroblast cell adhesion and viability on highly rough
three-dimensional (3D) silicon (Si) surfaces with gradient roughness ratios and wettabilities …

Topography of the extracellular environment is now recognized as a major biophysical
regulator of cell behavior and function. The study of the influence of patterned substrates on …

Substrate topography, independently of substrate chemistry, has been reported to have
significant effects on cell behaviour. Based on the use of fabrication techniques developed …

During embryogenesis and tissue maintenance and repair in an adult organism, a myriad of
stem cells are regulated by their surrounding extracellular matrix (ECM) enriched with …
