Biomaterials with the ability to self-heal and recover their structural integrity offer many
advantages for applications in biomedicine. The past decade has witnessed the rapid …

This review discusses one-dimensional supramolecular polymers that form in aqueous
media. First, naturally occurring supramolecular polymers are described, in particular …

Hydrogels have emerged as a promising class of extracellular matrix (ECM)-mimicking
materials in regenerative medicine. Here, we briefly describe current state-of-the-art of ECM …

Supramolecular polymer materials are polymeric structures that are physically crosslinked
by non-covalent interactions such as ionic interactions, host-guest complexation and …

Hydrogels were prepared with physical cross-links comprising 2-ureido-4 [1H]-pyrimidinone
(UPy) hydrogen-bonding units within the backbone of segmented amphiphilic …

Hydrogels comprise a class of soft materials which are extremely useful in a number of
contexts, for example as matrix-mimetic biomaterials for applications in regenerative …

The extracellular matrix (ECM) forms through hierarchical assembly of small and larger
polymeric molecules into a transient, hydrogel‐like fibrous network that provides mechanical …

We report the preparation and structural and mechanical characterization of a tough
supramolecular hydrogel, based exclusively on hydrophobic association. The system …

Biomaterials are being applied in increasingly complex areas such as tissue engineering,
bioprinting, and regenerative medicine. For these applications, challenging—or even …

Soluble biochemical agents are being employed to generate kidney organoids from human‐
induced pluripotent stem cells. However, this soluble factor approach does not consider the …
