Multiblock copolymers type PDC are polyetheresterurethanes composed of
poly(ɛ-caprolactone) and poly(p-dioxanone) segments.
They were designed as degradadable shape-memory polymers for medical devices, which can be
implanted minimally-invasively. While providing structural support in the initial phase
after implantation, they are capable to modulate soft tissue regeneration while
degradation. In this perspective, we elucidate cell-material interactions, compatibility
both in-vitro and in-vivo and biofunctionality of PDC,
which represents a promising candidate biomaterial family especially for cardiovascular
applications.
