Supra-molecular assembly of a lumican-derived peptide amphiphile enhances its collagen-stimulating activity

C(16)-YEALRVANEVTLN, a peptide amphiphile (PA) incorporating a biologically active amino acid sequence found in lumican, has been examined for its influence upon collagen synthesis by human corneal fibroblasts in vitro, and the roles of supra-molecular assembly and activin receptor-like kinase ALK r...
