Abstract
An injectable and self-healing collagen-gold hybrid hydrogel is spontaneously formed by electrostatic self-assembly and subsequent biomineralization. It is demonstrated that such collagen-based hydrogels may be used as an injectable material for local delivery of therapeutic agents, showing enhanced antitumor efficacy.Keywords: antitumor therapy; collagen hydrogels; electrostatic self-assembly; in situ sustained release; injectable and self-healing properties
