Facile and selective covalent grafting of an RGD‐peptide to electrospun scaffolds improves HUVEC adhesion

The development of a biomimetic surface able to promote endothelialization is fundamental in the search for blood vessel substitutes that prevent the formation of thrombi or hyperplasia. This study aims at investigating the effect of functionalization of poly‐ε‐caprolactone or poly(L‐lactic acid‐co‐ɛ‐caprolactone) electrospun scaffolds with a photoreactive adhesive peptide. The designed peptide sequence contains four Gly‐Arg‐Gly‐Asp‐Ser‐Pro motifs per chain and a p‐azido‐Phe residue at each terminus. Different peptide densities on the scaffold surface were obtained by simply modifying the peptide concentration used in pretreatment of the scaffold before UV irradiation.
