  • Abstract
    Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play important roles in regulating cellular morphology. The balance between generation and elimination of ROS is essential for the maintenance of signaling pathways. Disturbances in the redox balance results in changes in cellular morphology and disturbs cellular homeostasis. Therefore, it is essential to suppress the excess ROS in order to maintain cellular homeostasis. In this work, we constructed new biocompatible surfaces based on ROS scavenging character and demonstrate the utility of a ROS-scavenging polymer as a novel biocompatible material.
