Reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are expressed at high levels in many diseases, can be scavenged by cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeONPs). CeONPs can cause significant cytotoxicity when administered directly to cells, but this cytotoxicity can be reduced if CeONPs can be encapsulated in biocompatible polymers. In this study, CeONPs were synthesized using a one-stage process, then purified, characterized, and then encapsulated into an electrospun poly--caprolactone (PCL) scaffold.

The key characteristics of this architecture are the decoupling of adhesion from detachment and the impermeability to the integrin protein complex of the adhesive domains. This surface design eliminates inherent limitations of thermoresponsive coatings, namely, the necessity for the precise thickness of the coating, grafting or cross-linking density, and material of the basal substrate.
