Synthetic peptides derived from decorin as building blocks for biomaterials based on supramolecular interactions

In this work, the development of a new molecular building block, based on synthetic peptides derived from decorin, is presented. These peptides represent a promising basis for the design of polymer-based biomaterials that mimic the ECM on a molecular level and exploit specific biological recognition...
