摘要
A method was developed to modify silicon surfaces with good protein resistance and specific cell attachment. A silicon surface was initially deposited using a block copolymer of N-vinylpyrrolidone (NVP) and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) (PVP-b-PHEMA) film through surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization and then further immobilized using a short arginine-glycine-aspartate (RGD) peptide. Our results demonstrate that the RGD-modified surfaces (Si-RGD) can suppress non-specific adsorption of proteins and induce the adhesion of L929 cells. The Si-RGD surface exhibited higher cell proliferation rates than the unmodified silicon surface. This research established a simple method for the fabrication of dual-functional silicon surface that combines antifouling and cell attachment promotion.
