Peptides conjugation on biomaterials: chemical conjugation approaches and their promoted multifunction for biomedical applications

초록

Researchers have made significant efforts to attach peptides to various biomaterials, resulting in diverse functionalities. By harnessing the advantages of peptides, functions such as high specificity, potency, cost-effectiveness, small size for improved tissue penetration and targeted delivery, biodegradability, and novel therapeutic applications can be achieved through their attachment to biomaterials. Of various methods available for modifying biomolecules, chemical techniques are the most established and can effectively immobilize the desired molecule onto a specific surface. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the chemical modification methods used for attaching peptides to various biomaterials in recent studies and showcases some of their latest applications. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to The Korean Society for Biotechnology and Bioengineering and Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2024.
