Zusammenfassung: | Transplantable catalytic reactors have attracted considerable attention as therapeutic biomedical materials. However, existing transplantable reactors such as biocatalytic films are limited by their invasiveness. Here, we report the fabrication of biocatalytic supramolecular hydrogels via self-assembly of amphiphilic glycopeptides. We show that the hydrogels have shear-thinning properties, demonstrating their potential to be administered using a syringe. Enzymes can be loaded into the hydrogels by simply adding enzyme solution, and the enzyme-loaded hydrogels can transform a prodrug into an anticancer drug that inhibits tumor cell growth. This study demonstrates the potential of these biocatalytic hydrogels as injectable therapeutic reactors for enzyme prodrug therapy |
