Journal ArticleDOI

Introducing D-amino acid or simple glycoside into small peptides to enable supramolecular hydrogelators to resist proteolysis.

TL;DR: This work suggests that the inclusion of a simple glycogen in hydrogelators is a useful approach to increase their biostability, and the gained understanding from the work may ultimately lead to development of hydrogels of functional peptides for biomedical applications that require long-termBiostability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Using Enzymes to Control Molecular Hydrogelation

TL;DR: Using an enzymatic reaction to convert a precursor into a Hydrogelator or vice versa, one can control the delivery, functions, and responses of a hydrogel according to a specific biological condition or environment, thus providing an accessible route to creating sophisticated soft materials for potential biomedical applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Silver Surface Iodination for Enhancing the Conductivity of Conductive Composites

TL;DR: In this paper, the electrical conductivity of a silver microflake-filled conductive composites is dramatically improved after a filler surface treatment, and the reliability of the printed thin film resistors is evaluated by both the 85 °C/85% relative humidity moisture exposure and the −40 ∼ 125 °C thermal cycling exposure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Using matrix metalloprotease-9 (MMP-9) to trigger supramolecular hydrogelation

TL;DR: This work reports the first example of using MMP-9 to catalyze the formation and self-assembly of a supramolecular hydrogelator and subsequenthydrogelation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulating the Rate of Molecular Self-Assembly for Targeting Cancer Cells.

TL;DR: A simple molecular design of the substrates of phosphatases-tailoring the number of phosphates on peptidic substrates-is able to regulate the rate of molecular self-assembly of the enzyme reaction product, which allows selective inhibition of osteosarcoma cells over hepatocytes.
