Customisable peptide hydrogels as user-defined biomimetic models of specific tissue microenvironments

The extracellular matrix (ECM) is comprised of a complex variety of biochemically distinct molecules including proteins, glycoproteins, proteoglycans, and polysaccharides. These provide not only the physical support for resident cells but also play a vital role in tissue homeostasis, by providing ke...
