Crosstalk between Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells on a Peptide Amphiphile Scaffold.

The goal of this study was to evaluate the crosstalk between human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) in peptide amphiphile (PA) scaffolds in vitro. I hypothesized that co-cultured cells would exhibit the best osteogenic and angiogenic responses, compared to HUVECs or hMSCs alone
