Growth factor and cell therapy are emerging as promising therapeutic strategies; however, their retention and sustainable functions in the injured tissue are limited. Self-assembling peptide (SAP)-based hydrogels, mimicking the extracellular matrix, are therefore introduced to encapsulate and controllably release cells, cell-derived exosomes or growth factors, thus promoting angiogenesis and tissue recovery after ischemia. We will summarize the classification, composition and structure of SAPs, and the influencing factors for SAP gelation. Moreover, we will describe the functionalized SAPs, and the combinatorial therapy of cells, exosomes or growth factors with functionalized SAPs for angiogenic process as well as its advantage in immunogenicity and injectability. Finally, an outlook on future directions and challenges is provided.Keywords: self‐assembling peptide, hydrogel, angiogenesis, survival, retentionhttps://www.dovepress.com/self-assembling-peptide-based-hydrogels-in-angiogenesis-peer-reviewed-article-IJNself‐assembling peptidehydrogelangiogenesissurvivalretention |
