Abstract: Controlled stem cell differentiation on micropatterned biodegradable substrates involves modulation of the canonical FAK-ERK (focal adhesion kinase-extracellular-signal regulated kinase) signaling pathway in the absence of exogenous soluble factors. The use of a micropatterned platform to coerce human mesenchymal stem cells to adopt an elongated morphology bypasses the need to use pharmacological factors to repress FAK-ERK signaling activity to bring about substantial myogenesis. © 2011 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
