Hierarchical supramolecular hydrogels: self-assembly by peptides and photo-controlled release via host–guest interaction

Abstract

A hierarchical supramolecular hydrogel was self-assembled from a Fmoc-RGDS tetrapeptide and showed photo-controlled release directed by host–guest interaction. Multiple payloads, including vesicles, were successively released from a single peptide hydrogel.
