Abstract
≤ 1.4, ≥1.6, and ≥1.8 promoted the neural, osteogenic, and chondrogenic differentiation of MSCs, respectively. The fractal structure of gel can modulate cell proliferation and fate, which provides an insight into designing the appropriate fractal and molecular structure of polymer hydrogel for biomedical applications.
