Topographical factors of scaffolds play an important role in regulating cell functions. Although the effects of alignment topography and three-dimensional (3D) configuration of nanofibers as well as surface stiffness on cell behavior have been investigated, there are relatively few reports that attempt to understand the relationship between synergistic effects of these parameters and cell responses. Herein, the influence of biophysical and biomechanical cues of electrospun polyurethane (PU) scaf
