To address the adverse reactions caused by the implantation of blood-contacting materials, researchers have developed different strategies, of which mimicking multiple key features of endothelial cells is the most effective. However, simultaneously immobilizing multiple chemical components on a single material surface and maintaining the effects of individual components are challenging. In this work, endothelium-mimicking silicone surfaces were developed by incorporating the antifouling polymer poly(oligo(ethylene glycol) methacrylate), the glycosaminoglycan analog poly(sodium 4-vinyl-benzenesulfonate) and a nitric oxide catalyst (selenocystamine dihydrochloride). Through the rational regulation of multiple chemical components, the surfaces harmoniously resisted nonspecific protein adsorption, platelet adhesion and activation and smooth muscle cell hyperproliferation while promoting endothelial cell proliferation and migration. The coculture experiment with HUVECs and HUVSMCs showed that the optimum selectivity of HUVECs/HUVSMCs was ∼1.7. This work contributes insight into the control of antifouling properties and endothelial selectivity, providing a new avenue for the development of blood-contacting materials.
