Nanomed3D peptides spontaneously assemble in neutral pH-solutions to form hydrogels, which resemble the nanostructure of the extracellular matrix found in connective tissue, cartilage, ligaments, tendons, bone and skin, whose major components are collagen, fibronectin and elastin. Nanomed3D peptides can also be electrospun into solid flexible mats or microchannels.

Regenerative Medicine
Peptidic scaffolds are a fundamental requirement of regenerative medicine applications such as the regeneration of damaged tissues, including injuries deriving from lesions of the spinal cord, neurodegenerative diseases, maxillofacial and skeletal replacement and any other type of cell therapy.
Biocompatible Scaffolds
Nanomed3D patented biomaterials are made of synthetic self-assembling peptides. Peptides are short chains of naturally occurring amino acids which are innocuous and biocompatible. These self-assembling peptide nanostructures can be tuned for specific cell types and tissues by adjusting their rigidity and structural density. Also, being 100% synthetic, Nanomed3D scaffolds are pathogen-free, pure, reproducible and potentially translatable to the clinic.

Customizable Biomimetics
Functional motifs made of short peptides are at the core of the Nanomed3D technology. Nanomed3D biomaterials are designed for specific cell types and can include functional motifs, which interact selectively with cells and/or cytokines. In this way, a custom nanostructure can stimulate certain useful mechanisms in the cell colony or in the tissue to be regenerated. Countless different functional motifs can be ready added to the same self-assembling peptide, so as to add multiple biological functions, or biomimetics, to the tested scaffold.
