Bioactive scaffolds with enhanced supramolecular motion promote recovery from spinal cord injury

Z. Alvarez et al.

Summary: Researchers have successfully utilized peptide amphiphile supramolecular polymers containing two distinct signals to achieve cell signaling and tissue regeneration in a mouse model of severe spinal cord injury. By mutating the peptide sequence of the monomers, they intensified the motions of molecules within scaffold fibrils, resulting in notable effects such as vascular growth, axonal regeneration, and functional recovery. The study suggests that optimizing cell signaling through ensembles of molecules could be achieved by tuning their internal motions.
