Abstract

studies. Finally, we explore current challenges and future directions for the clinical application of MSP-functionalized vascular biomaterials. Collectively, these insights position marine sulfated polysaccharides as a versatile and underexplored class of biomolecules with the potential to address long-standing barriers in vascular tissue engineering.
