    AnnotationModifications of poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) with cholesterol and laminin have been developed to design scaffolds that promote cell–surface interaction. Cholesterol- (P(HEMA–CHLMA)) and laminin-modified (LN–PHEMA) superporous PHEMA scaffolds have been prepared by the bulk radical copolymerization of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), cholesterol methacrylate (CHLMA) and the cross-linking agent ethylene imethacrylate in the presence of ammonium oxalate crystals to introduce interconnected superpores in the matrix. Neat PHEMA and laminin-modified PHEMA scaffolds facilitated MSC attachment, but did not support cell spreading and proliferation; the viability of the attached cells decreased with time of cultivation. In contrast, MSCs spread and proliferated on P(HEMA–CHLMA) and LN-P(HEMA–CHLMA) hydrogels.
