DESCRIPTION:Amyloid-like peptides are self-assembling peptides with a high 
 cross β-sheet amount\, featuring mechanical stiffness\, intrinsic bioacti
 vity and strong adhesion to various substrates. They can mimic essential f
 eatures of the extracellular matrix (ECM) such as its fibrous morphology\,
  mechanical properties\, and chemical cues\, which makes them interesting 
 as scaffolds for tissue engineering.[1\,2] In the ECM topographical gradie
 nts\, patterns and biological signals provide essential roles in guiding t
 issue orientation and function. For example\, fibrillar scaffolds enable e
 fficient cell-material interactions in terms of proliferation and cell inf
 iltration at the mesoscopic length scale.[3-5] To reach the goal of tissue
  function control we need to control the scaffold morphology and/or bioact
 ivity. Here\, we designed smart Amyloid-like fibrils which can be controll
 ed by simple external stimuli like light or pH and change their bioactive 
 response to the cell culture.\nSpeaker: Adriana Ender
