Özet

Peptide-containing biomaterials have been increasingly studied with biomedical applications

such as drug delivery, cell culture scaffolds wound healing and therapeutics to tissue

engineering recently. The cross-linked hydrophilic hydrogels by three-dimensional network

structure show great similarity with biological tissues with high water retention. Self-assembled

or reversible peptide-based hydrogels are oligomers of naturally occurring amino acids. They

are biocompatible, biodegradable, usually non-immunogenic Furthermore these

hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity self-assembled peptid gels can be much safer bio-applications

with chemically identifiable and precise controllability properties which particular peptide

sequences can act as biological cues.. The different properties of side chains in amino acids

provide a many sites for chemical modification and conjugation choices of the peptides,

enabling various resulting polymeric gels with adjustable physicochemical and mechanical


properties. Macroporous cryogels from the hydrogel family are obtained by covalent cross-

linking or radical polymerization. Compared with the hydrogels have obtained from the same


solution at room temperature, cryogels are form a more heterogeneous structure, mechanically

stronger with higher porosity and swelling properties. For peptide based polymeric

hydrogel/cryogels can be designed to render shape memory effects, stimuli-responsive smart


materials, and self-assembled gelling polymers. The usability of these material at in-vitro/in-

vivo studies are particularly interesting for biological and biomedical applications. In this


review focuses on the synthesis of self-assembled polymeric hydrogels/cryogels containinig

peptide and their applications.
