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 …

Polypeptides have attracted considerable attention in recent decades due to their inherent
biodegradability and tunable cytocompatibility. Macromolecular design in conjunction with …

In the last decade, interest in the field of three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting has increased
enormously. 3D bioprinting combines the fields of developmental biology, stem cells, and …

The communication of cells with their surroundings is mostly encoded in the epitopes of
structural and signalling proteins present in the extracellular matrix (ECM). These peptide …

Hydrogels prepared via self-assembly offer scalable and tunable platforms for drug delivery
applications. Molecular-scale self-assembly leverages an interplay of attractive and …

Extensive scientific investigations in recent decades have established the anatomical,
biomechanical, and functional importance that the meniscus holds within the knee joint. As a …

Bone tissue engineering is becoming an ideal strategy to replace autologous bone grafts for
surgical bone repair, but the multihierarchical complexity of natural bone is still difficult to …

Self‐assembly is a ubiquitous process in biology where it plays numerous important roles
and underlies the formation of a wide variety of complex biological structures. Over the past …

This review discusses basic aspects used to control the architecture and functional
properties of smart hydrogels. The introduction briefly outlines what has been accomplished …

A major challenge of cancer immunotherapy is to develop delivery strategies that can
effectively and safely augment the immune system's antitumor response. Here, we report on …
