Glutathione-triggered formation of a Fmoc-protected short peptide-based supramolecular hydrogel.

Glutathione-triggered formation of a Fmoc-protected short peptide-based supramolecular hydrogel.

A biocompatible method of glutathione (GSH) catalyzed disulfide bond reduction was used to form Fmoc-short peptide-based supramolecular hydrogels. The hydrogels could form in both buffer solution and cell culture medium containing 10% of Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) within minutes. The hydrogel was char...
