Developing a self-healing supramolecular nucleoside hydrogel [PDF]
Soft Matter, 2016 Low molecular weight gelator hydrogels provide a viable alternative to traditional polymer based drug delivery platforms, owing to their tunable stability and in most cases inherent biocompatibility. Here we report the first self-healing nucleoside hydrogel using N4-octanoyl-2'-deoxycytidine (0.5% w/v) for drug delivery.

Self-healing poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) hydrogels
European Polymer Journal, 2015 Abstract Substitution the covalently crosslinked polymer chains by supramolecular ones is a promising strategy to design self-healing hydrogels. Approaches for the synthesis of supramolecular poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) hydrogels with the ability to self-heal are rare because of the bulky side groups of the polymer hindering formation of ...

Hydraulic fracturing in cells and tissues: fracking meets cell biology [PDF]
, 2017 The animal body is fundamentally made of water. A small fraction of this water is freely flowing in blood and lymph, but most of it is trapped in hydrogels such as the extracellular matrix (ECM), the cytoskeleton, and chromatin.

Shape retaining self-healing metal-coordinated hydrogels
Nanoscale, 2021 We introduce pyrogallol end-functionalized telechelic PEGs that are crosslinked with di- or trivalent ions to result in self-healing, adhesive hydrogels whose mechanical properties can be varied over an unprecedented range.
