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

BMEMat, 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 ...

Halogenated Tryptophans Improve Integrin αVβ6 Affinity of Cyclic RGD Peptides and Provide Handles for Late‐Stage Derivatization

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Lighting up αVβ6: Halotryptophan engineering converts an RGD scaffold into a modular αVβ6 ligand platform, enabling picomolar affinity and late‐stage functionalization. The resulting probes combine high selectivity with fluorescence for FACS and tumor imaging.

DNA Nanotechnology Meets Peptide and Protein Self‐Assembly

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Combining DNA nanotechnology with peptide and protein assembly provides complementary platforms for the rational engineering of functional biomaterials. This Perspective discusses the emerging field of self‐assembling DNA‐peptide and DNA‐protein hybrid systems that combine the structural precision and programmability of DNA nanotechnology with the ...

Talin1 Adhesion Morphology and Colocalization With Tensin3 Are Largely Unaffected by Polyacrylamide Substrate Stiffness

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cells sense the stiffness of their extracellular matrix (ECM) and adapt their behavior accordingly. We investigated how ECM stiffness affects the spatial organization of talin1, a key mechanosensitive focal adhesion protein. Using polyacrylamide (PA) hydrogels with tunable stiffnesses (0.2–188 kPa), we analyzed cell morphology, migration ...
