Abstract:
Compositions, reagents, kits, and methods for the reversible, covalent conjugation of functional molecules to engineered surfaces, e.g., surfaces of biomedical devices or used in analytical assays or industrial catalysis, are provided. The compositions, reagents, kits, and methods provided herein allow for the attachment, release, and replacement of functional molecules to and from engineered surfaces in vitro, in situ, and in vivo. Implantable vascular grafts, stents, catheters, and other medical devices with immobilized thrombomodulin-coated surfaces are provided. These molecules can be released from the device surface and replaced with fresh thrombomodulin via systemic administration of the respective reactants and without the need to remove the device.
