Supramolecular Hydrogel Induced by Electrostatic Interactions between Polycation and Phosphorylated-Fmoc-Tripeptide

open access: yes, 2020
Supramolecular hydrogels formed through noncovalent interactions of low-molecular-weight hydrogelators (LMWHs) show great potential applications in different fields, such as delivery of therapeutics, injectable biomaterials, catalysis, or materials ...

Extracellular matrix formation in self-assembled minimalistic bioactive hydrogels based on aromatic peptide amphiphiles

open access: yesJournal of Tissue Engineering, 2014
The hitherto inconsistency in clinical performance for engineered skin drives the current development of novel cell-scaffolding materials; one challenge is to only extract essential characteristics from the complex native ECM (extracellular matrix) and ...

Engineering programmable peptide hydrogels for chronic refractory wounds: A mechanism‐driven framework

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
To break the self‐perpetuating pathology of chronic wounds, we propose a mechanism‐driven engineering framework for peptide‐based hydrogels. This review elucidates a hierarchical strategy—from molecular design to intelligent, multi‐functional systems—that enables these programmable biomaterials to dynamically intervene in key pathological loops and ...

Cyclo‐Polyproline: Chameleonic All‐Peptide Macrocycles With Induced‐Fit Host‐Guest Recognition

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 27, 1 July 2026.
Macrocycles served as the genesis of supramolecular chemistry, advancing synthetic, separation, and materials fields. Despite their utility, they typically lack synthetic control. This work establishes a robust platform for all‐peptide macrocycles capable of host‐guest complexation and chameleonic behavior.

Hierarchical Peptide Functionalized Titania Nanotubes: Improving Stability, Promoting Osteogenesis, and Reducing Infection Risk

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
The study demonstrates a dual‐level modification of titania nanotube surfaces through the covalent grafting of Fmoc‐FF dipeptides, followed by a secondary self‐assembled layer of FF dipeptide. This hierarchical strategy significantly enhances coating density and structural integrity without compromising the nano‐topographical and biochemical cues ...

The assembly of tetrameric human L‐lactate dehydrogenase is regulated by ionic strength, β‐NADH binding, cyclic peptides, and long‐chain dicarboxylates

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Lactate dehydrogenases catalyze the reduction of pyruvate to lactate, the generation of which is of importance for the energetic metabolism of malignant cells. In particular, human cancer cells overexpress lactate dehydrogenase A (hLDH‐A), whose catalytic activity depends on its assembly into the corresponding homotetramer (denoted as hLDH‐5),

Supramolecular Behaviour of Heterochiral Dipeptides With Ile

open access: yesJournal of Peptide Science, Volume 32, Issue 10, October 2026.
This study describes the supramolecular behaviour and gelation of heterochiral, aliphatic dipeptides d‐Ile‐l‐Xaa (Xaa = Ala, Val, Leu or Ile) in various solvents and buffered water at neutral pH. Metastable gels rapidly crystallised. X‐ray diffraction analysis was conducted to unveil the dipeptides' packing modes in amphipathic layers.
