This research aim is to develop self-assembled nanomaterials capable of sensing and responding various stimuli in biological environment and/or mild stimuli applicable to biological conditions. To this end, we focused on introducing selectivity of chemical reactions into the self-assembled nanomaterials. On the basis of the molecular design, we have successfully developed supramolecular hydrogels capable of responding biomolecules as biomarker and supramolecular hydrogelators exhibiting unique heat-set hydrogelformation.
