Abstract

Diabetes is a widespread epidemic that includes a number of comorbid conditions that greatly increase the chance of acquiring other chronic illnesses. Every year, there are significantly more people with diabetes because of the rise in type-2 diabetes prevalence. The primary causes of illness and mortality worldwide are, among these, hyperglycemia and its comorbidities. There has been a lot of interest in the creation of peptide-based hydrogels as a potentially effective platform for the treatment of diabetes and its consequences. Here, we emphasize the use of self-assembled hydrogel formulations and their unique potential for the treatment/management of type-2 diabetes and its consequences. (i.e., wounds). Key aspects covered include the characteristics of self-assembled peptide hydrogels, methods for their preparation, and their pre-clinical and clinical applications in addressing metabolic disorders such as type-2 diabetes.
