Supporting Information

Description The 3-D Life PVA-CD Hydrogel SG Kit provides reagents for setting up slow gelling, cell-compatible hydrogels. Its major components are polymeric SG-PVA and the crosslinker CD-Link. When the two reagents are combined, thiol groups on CD-Link form stable thioether bonds with thiol-reactive groups on SG-PVA, which results in the formation of the gel. The components are mixed at physiological pH (pH 7.2) for optimal cell compatibility. The slow gelation kinetics allows enough time to conveniently manipulate the solution before the onset of gel formation.

CD-Link contains a matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-cleavable peptide sequence (Pro-Leu-Gly-Leu-Trp-Ala), which is cleaved by a broad range of MMPs including MMP1, MMP2, MMP3, MMP7, MMP9 and MMP13 [1, 2, 3]. It allows cells to locally degrade the polymer network, if they produce the indicated MMPs.

Prior to the cross-linking step, peptides (e.g. 3-D Life RGD Peptide, Cat.No. 09-P-001) can be covalently attached to a portion of the SH-reactive groups of SG-PVA to provide a cell-adhesive matrix.
