Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Review Description
This short review addresses the synthesis of thermoresponsive polymer surfaces and their application for cell tissue engineering. Four classes of synthetic thermoresponsive polymers are discussed: poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)s, poly[oligo(ethylene glycol) methacrylate]s, polyoxazolines and polyethers, most notably, polyglycidol. Synthetic routes leading to thermoresponsive layers on solid support are described. Relationships between structures of the layers and their interactions with cells are analyzed. Chemical (copolymerization or the inclusion of biologically active species) and physical (patterning or the morphology of the surfaces) modifications of macromolecular surfaces are described and their relations to the growth and detachment of cell sheets are reviewed. The application of cell sheets grown and detached from thermoresponsive surfaces to treat diseases is also presented.
