Chitosan suitability to adhesion, neuronal differentiation and maturation of hiPSCs compared to Matrigel coated substrates by Sara Grasselli, Donatella Di Lisa, Pier Francesco Ferrari, Sergio Martinoia, Laura Pastorino

“…Finding an adhesion factor that supports the differentiation and maturation of the neural networks of hiPSCs derived neurons is therefore crucial. The ability of chitosan (CHI) in supporting the adhesion and development of functional neuronal networks has already been demonstrated for iNeurons, indicating CHI as an alternative to PORN/LAM.In this study, we investigated the bioactivity of CHI by comparing its ability to support the early-stage differentiation of hiPSCs to that of Matrigel. …”
