Abstract
Biomimetic semi-synthetic hydrogels formed from a combination of star-shaped poly(ethylene glycol) (starPEG) and the glycosaminoglycan, heparin, allows for the three-dimensional (3D) culture of various cells and tissues. In this chapter, we describe methods for the use of starPEG-heparin hydrogels to cultivate primary and immortalized human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells. The resulting 3D culture models allow for the study of AML development and response to chemotherapeutic agents.
