  • Electrospun PNIPAAm/PCL fiber mats for aligned cell sheets
    Patent number: 12054862
    Abstract: The present invention provides compositions comprising aligned fibers of electrospun PNIPAAm and poly (?-caprolactone) (PCL) (denoted PNIPAAm/PCL fibers). The PNIPAAm/PCL compositions enable enhanced growth and detachment of intact anisotropic cell sheets. The compositions do not require chemical modification or resource-intensive techniques, thus saving time and expense, and have the potential to generate tissue-specific, aligned cell sheets for transplant studies.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 3, 2021
    Date of Patent: August 6, 2024
    Assignee: Board of Regents, The University of Texas System
    Inventors: Janeta Zoldan, Alicia Allen
