Patterned substitution of d-amino acids into the primary sequences self-assembling peptides influences molecular-level packing and supramolecular morphology. We report that block heterochiral analogs model amphipathic peptide KFE8 (Ac-FKFEFKFE-NH
Abstract Light‐responsive biomaterials are an emerging class of materials used for developing noninvasive, noncontact, precise, and controllable biomedical devices. Long‐wavelength near‐infrared (NIR) radiation is attractive light source in situ gelation due to its higher penetration depth minimum side effects. The conventional approach obtain crosslinked relies heavily on the use a photoinitiator by generating reactive species when exposed short‐wavelength radiation, which detrimental...
Platelets extravasate from the circulation into tumor microenvironment, enable metastasis, and confer resistance to chemotherapy in several cancers. Therefore, arresting tumor-platelet cross-talk with effective atoxic antiplatelet agents combination anticancer drugs may serve as an cancer treatment strategy. To test this concept, we create ovarian microenvironment chip (OTME-Chip) that consists of a platelet-perfused which recapitulates platelet extravasation its consequences. By including...
Flexible electronics require elastomeric and conductive biointerfaces with native tissue-like mechanical properties. The conventional approaches to engineer such a biointerface often utilize nanomaterials in combination polymeric hydrogels that are cross-linked using toxic photoinitiators. Moreover, these systems frequently demonstrate poor biocompatibility face trade-offs between conductivity stiffness under physiological conditions. To address challenges, we developed class of...
Two-dimensional (2D) molybdenum disulfide (MoS
We introduced a new concept to the control of wetting characteristics by modulating degree atomic defects two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenide nanoassemblies molybdenum disulfide. This work shed light on role vacancies characteristic that can be leveraged develop class superhydrophobic surfaces for various applications without altering their topography.
Alginate hydrogels are widely used for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine due to their excellent biocompatibility. A facile commonly strategy crosslink alginate is the addition of Ca2+ that leads hydrogelation. However, extracellular a secondary messenger in activating inflammasome pathways following physical injury or pathogenic insult, which carries risk persistent inflammation scaffold rejection. Here, we present graft copolymers charge complementary heterodimeric coiled coil...
Uncontrolled hemorrhage is the predominant cause of preventable combat deaths. Various biomaterials serve as hemostatic agents due to their procoagulant or absorptive activity. However, these often lack expansion capabilities, which severely limits use in noncompressible wounds. This study combines a nanocomposite with shape‐memory polymer foam design composite material both and physical properties. fabricated two formulations: externally coated highly concentrated (“coated composite”)...
