Peptide-protein coassembling matrices as a biomimetic 3D model of ovarian cancer (2020)
Journal Article
Hedegaard, C. L., Redondo-Gómez, C., Tan, B. Y., Ng, K. W., Loessner, D., & Mata, A. (2020). Peptide-protein coassembling matrices as a biomimetic 3D model of ovarian cancer. Science Advances, 6(40), Article eabb3298. https://doi.org/10.1126/sciadv.abb3298

Bioengineered three-dimensional (3D) matrices expand our experimental repertoire to study tumor growth and progression in a biologically relevant, yet controlled, manner. Here, we used peptide amphiphiles (PAs) to coassemble with and organize extrace... Read More about Peptide-protein coassembling matrices as a biomimetic 3D model of ovarian cancer.

Host-Guest-Mediated Epitope Presentation on Self-Assembled Peptide Amphiphile Hydrogels (2020)
Journal Article
Redondo-Gómez, C., Padilla-Lopategui, S., Azevedo, H. S., & Mata, A. (2020). Host-Guest-Mediated Epitope Presentation on Self-Assembled Peptide Amphiphile Hydrogels. ACS Biomaterials Science and Engineering, 6(9), 4870–4880. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsbiomaterials.0c00549

A key feature in biomaterial design is the incorporation of bioactive signals into artificial constructs to stimulate tissue regeneration. Most currently used hydrogel cell culture systems depend on the covalent attachment of extracellular matrix (EC...

Interfacial Self-Assembly to Spatially Organize Graphene Oxide Into Hierarchical and Bioactive Structures (2020)
Journal Article
Majkowska, A., Redondo-Gómez, C., Rice, A., Gonzalez, M., Inostroza-Brito, K. E., Collin, E., …Mata, A. (2020). Interfacial Self-Assembly to Spatially Organize Graphene Oxide Into Hierarchical and Bioactive Structures. Frontiers in Materials, 7, Article 167. https://doi.org/10.3389/fmats.2020.00167

Multicomponent self-assembly holds great promise for the generation of complex and functional biomaterials with hierarchical microstructure. Here, we describe the use of supramolecular co-assembly between an elastin-like recombinamer (ELR5) and a pep...
