Bioactive glycopeptide nanofibers for tissue regeneration applications
(Bilkent University, 2016-05)Natural extracellular matrix (ECM) is rich in glycopeptides and glycosaminoglycans, which function in controlling cellular processes. In this thesis, glycopeptide molecules that mimic natural glycopeptides and glycosaminoglycans ... -
Protective therapeutic effects of peptide nanofiber and hyaluronic acid hybrid membrane in in vivo osteoarthritis model
(Acta Materialia Inc, 2018)Osteoarthritis (OA) is a condition where tissue function is lost through a combination of secondary inflammation and deterioration in articular cartilage. One of the most common causes of OA is age-related tissue impairment ... -
Rose petal topography mimicked poly(dimethylsiloxane) substrates for enhanced corneal endothelial cell behavior
(Elsevier, 2021-04-30)Low proliferation capacity of corneal endothelial cells (CECs) and worldwide limitations in transplantable donor tissues reveal the critical need of a robust approach for in vitro CEC growth. However, preservation of ... -
Supramolecular GAG-like self-assembled glycopeptide nanofibers Induce chondrogenesis and cartilage regeneration
(American Chemical Society, 2016)Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and glycoproteins are vital components of the extracellular matrix, directing cell proliferation, differentiation, and migration and tissue homeostasis. Here, we demonstrate supramolecular GAG-like ...
