A Novel Photo-initiated Small Intestine Submucosa Hydrogel for 3D Cell Culture in Tissue Engineering comments
The naturally derived material small intestinal submucosa SIS is a decellularized and collagen-rich extracellular matrix material derived from the submucosal layer of porcine intestine, is widely used in clinic and preclinic research, since it remains mainly structural and functional molecules of native extracellular matrix ECM , such as collagen, hyaluronic acid, and kinds of growth factors...
