The cell aggregates formed on the hydrogel surface with a lower RGD content acquired certain CSC-like properties, thus drug resistance was enhanced. In contrast, the drug sensitivity of cells on the higher RGD content surface increased because of less CSC-like properties. However, the presence of RGD in the stiff hydrogels (PEMM2) had less effect on the stemness expression than did its presence in the soft hydrogels (PEMM1). The results suggest that RGD content and matrix stiffness can lead to synergetic effects on the expression of
