Peptide- and Protein-Based Hydrogels

Jonker, Anika M., Löwik, Dennis W. P. M., van Hest, Jan C. M.·2012·Chemistry of Materials

Abstract

Hydrogels are polymeric networks, capable of absorbing large amounts of water and biological fluids. They are insoluble due to the presence of chemical or physical cross-links between the constituents. Hydrogels are promising materials for use as injectable biomaterials due to their high water content, tunable viscoelasticity, and biocompatibility. Peptides and proteins are important building blocks in the design of hydrogels, since they are easily degraded by the body and display a high biocompatibility. This review aims to give an overview of hydrogels in which peptides and proteins are structural elements of the polymer network. The review starts with hydrogels derived from naturally occurring structural proteins, followed by all-protein and peptide-based synthetic systems. Next, hybrid hydrogels composed of synthetic polymeric and peptide structural elements will be discussed. The potential of these hydrogels is illustrated with applications that are mainly derived from the field of tissue engineering.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
