Novel hydrogel systems for dentin regeneration
Date:7/4/2008

ide chains is achieved without attaching a hydrophobic tail. Based on their design, the chains can include bioactive peptide sequences for cell adhesion, binding of growth factors, or other biological molecules with therapeutic potential. Hence, multidomain peptide hydrogels represent a novel and highly versatile material offering a higher degree of control over nanofiber architecture and better chemical functionality.

The overarching goal of this research is to utilize these multidomain peptides as a biomimetic scaffold, along with dental stem cell therapy, to provide a natural 3D environment that can control and direct the differentiation and function of dental stem cells for the targeted regeneration of the dentin-pulp complex.

This work is highly translational and innovative, since it capitalizes on a new and previously untested material with novel properties for the regeneration of the dentin-pulp complex. Importantly, the results will provide the foundation for developing multidomain peptide scaffolds as novel therapeutics for the regeneration of the dentin-pulp complex.
