Specific Adsorption via Peptide Tags: Oriented Grafting and Release of Growth Factors for Tissue Engineering
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Numerous strategies have been proposed to decorate biomaterials with growth factors (GFs) for tissue engineering applications; their practicability as clinical tools, however, remains uncertain. We previously presented two complementary amphipathic peptides, namely, E5 and K5, which could be utilized as tags to direct GF capture onto organic materials via E5/K5 coiled-coil interactions. We here investigated their potential as mediators of GF physical adsorption. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays highlighted that both electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions could contribute to the adsorption process, without interfering with the peptides propensity for coiled-coil interactions. E5-tagged vascular endothelial growth factor, in particular, was efficiently adsorbed to poly(allylamine)-functionalized polystyrene, was maintained in a bioactive state and was steadily liberated over several days with little initial burst. This simple immobilization procedure was successfully applied to poly(ethylene terephthalate) films. Altogether, our data demonstrated that coil-tag-directed adsorption is a tunable, versatile and straightforward strategy to decorate biomaterials with GFs.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
