In this work, a new polyurethane (PU) chain extender was developed to incorporate a Glycine-Leucine (Gly-Leu) dipeptide, the cleavage site of several matrix metalloproteinases. PUs were synthesized with either the Gly-Leu-based chain extender (Gly-Leu PU) or a phenylalanine-based chain extender (Ph...
