    • Functionalized surfaces supported cell adhesion and growth even in serum-free conditions.

    Conclusions:

    • Bio-functionalized thermoresponsive surfaces with co-immobilized RGDS and insulin effectively promote endothelial cell adhesion and proliferation.
    • The synergistic effect of RGDS and insulin is key to enhanced cell growth.
    • These interfaces are promising for the rapid preparation of cell sheets for regenerative medicine.
