Self-assembling peptide semiconductors [PDF]
Peptide-based semiconductors For semiconductors, one often thinks of inorganic materials, such as doped silicon, or aromatic organic polymers and small molecules. Tao et al. review progress in making semiconductors based on self-assembling short peptides. The structures that

Insight into the self-assembly and gel formation of a bioactive peptide derived from bovine casein
Structured abstract: Abstract: The self-assembling and gelation properties of a bioactive peptide derived from bovine casein (FFVAPFPEVFGK) were studied in the peptide's natural form (uncapped, uncapFFV) and capped with protecting groups added to both ...

Self-Assembling Peptides with Insulin-Like Growth Factor Mimicry. [PDF]
Growth factor (GF) mimicry involves recapitulating the signaling of larger molecules or cells. Although GF mimicry holds considerable promise in tissue engineering and drug design applications, difficulties in targeting the signaling molecule to the site

Mechanical characteristics of beta sheet-forming peptide hydrogels are dependent on peptide sequence, concentration and buffer composition [PDF]
Self-assembling peptide hydrogels can be modified regarding their biodegradability, their chemical and mechanical properties and their nanofibrillar structure. Thus, self-assembling peptide hydrogels might be suitable scaffolds for regenerative therapies

Self-assembling peptide-enriched electrospun polycaprolactone scaffolds promote the h-osteoblast adhesion and modulate differentiation-associated gene expression [PDF]
Electrospun polycaprolactone (PCL) is able to support the adhesion and growth of h-osteoblasts and to delay their degradation rate to a greater extent with respect to other polyesters. The drawbacks linked to its employment in regenerative medicine arise

Self‐assembling amphiphilic peptides
The self‐assembly of several classes of amphiphilic peptides is reviewed, and selected applications are discussed. We discuss recent work on the self‐assembly of lipopeptides, surfactant‐like peptides and amyloid peptides derived from the amyloid‐ β peptide.
