Abstract

The invention relates to the fields of biomaterials, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. More specifically, it relates to biomaterial substrates having precise surface properties and the use thereof to enhance the attachment and ingrowth of ePTFE sleeved stents with the blood vessel wall. The specific physicochemical properties stimulate smooth muscle cell attachment and spreading that enables the stent to be biologically fixated in a very intimate fashion. This biological fixation prevents migration, infection, and aneurysm progression.
