This Review presents polysaccharides, oligosaccharides, nucleic acids, peptides, and
proteins as functional stimuli‐responsive polymer scaffolds that yield hydrogels with …

In the last few decades, we have witnessed the great advances of molecular self-assembly
in biomedical applications. Among the building blocks for molecular self-assembly, peptide …

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 …

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

The development of facile and versatile strategies with low-cost for hydrogel construction is
of tremendous scientific interest. Herein, we demonstrate that naturally derived, cost …

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

π–π stacking interactions, as a kind of attractive and nondestructive noncovalent interaction,
have been widely explored for the applications in modern chemistry, molecular biology, and …

Peptides that self-assemble into nanostructures are of tremendous interest for biological,
medical, photonic and nanotechnological applications. The enormous sequence space that …

Injectable hydrogel is a kind of in situ gelling system but has its specificity on the process
procedure, which requires a better control of gelation kinetics. Hydrogels with injectability …

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 …
