In this review we intend to provide a relatively comprehensive summary of the work of
supramolecular hydrogelators after 2004 and to put emphasis particularly on the …

Chirality is a basic characteristic of living matter and nature. During the evolution of life on
our planet, nature has favored one kind of chirality, thereby selecting the l-amino acids (with …

Supramolecular chemistry originally defined by Lehn as “chemistry beyond molecules”
exploits noncovalent interactions between molecules to form 1D, 2D, and 3D …

Peptide–drug conjugates (PDCs) represent an important class of therapeutic agents that
combine one or more drug molecules with a short peptide through a biodegradable linker …

Conspectus Chirality exits from molecular-level, supramolecular, and nanoscaled helical
structures to the macroscopic level in biological life. Among these various levels, as the …

Self-assembled peptide nanostructures have been increasingly exploited as functional
materials for applications in biomedicine and energy. The emergent properties of these …

Aromatic peptide amphiphiles are gaining popularity as building blocks for the bottom-up
fabrication of nanomaterials, including gels. These materials combine the simplicity of small …

Nature employs a variety of tactics to precisely time and execute the processes and
mechanics of life, relying on sequential sense and response cascades to transduce …

Hydrogels are unique supramolecular solid-like assemblies composed mainly of water
molecules that are held by molecular networks. Physical hydrogels that are formed by a set …

The self-assembly and structural and functional properties of peptide conjugates containing
bulky terminal aromatic substituents are reviewed with a particular focus on bioactivity …
