A novel approach for vascular grafts to achieve rapid endothelialization is to attract endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) from peripheral blood onto grafts via EPC-specific antibodies, aptamer, or peptides that specifically bind to EPCs. Inspired by this idea, the electrospun poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL) mats were modified with zwitterionic poly(carboxybetaine methacrylate) (PCBMA) and phage display-selected-EPC-specific peptide, TPSLEQRTVYAK (TPS). We tested the physical and chemical properties, cyto-compatibility, and platelet adhesion of the modified material, and investigated the specificity of the functionalized surface for capturing EPCs. The results indicated that PCL modified with zwitterionic PCBMA and TPS peptide showed improved hydrophilicity without morphology change and damage of the mats. Furthermore, the modified material supported adherence and growth of vascular cells and resisted platelets adhesion. The surfaces also specifically captured EPCs rather than bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and human umbilical vein endothelial cells. This surface-functionalized PCL graft may offer new opportunities for designing new vascular grafts. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
