Abstract

Variations in the functionalities of materials of different dimensions containing the same functional groups can be attributed to the structural stability and morphology of the materials. The morphology of peptide assemblies can influence their interactions with biological systems and ultimately modulate their bioactivity. Among reported Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD)-based supramolecular materials, two-dimensional (2-D) peptide assembly has been rarely studied. Herein, we report the fabrication of RGD-based supramolecular one-dimensional (1-D) and 2-D assemblies as peptide-based myoblast growth accelerators. The 2-D assembly was more effective in proliferating C2C12 cells than the 1-D assembly. These findings provide insights into the construction of optimal RGD-based supramolecular functional materials of different dimensions.
