Abstract: A method has been developed of preventing or limiting formation of adhesions by administering to a site in need thereof, in the absence of or after bleeding or leakage of fluid has been substantially stopped, a self-assembling material which forms a barrier to formation of adhesions. In certain embodiments, the self assembling materials are peptidomimetics, nucleotidomimetics, di- and triblock copolymers, N-alkylacrylamides, or dendrimers. These materials are also useful in a method for regeneration or repair of tissue or cells forming tissue.

Abstract: Self assembling peptides and peptidomimetics can be utilized for the treatment and support of disorders associated with leaky or damaged tight junction and weak, diseased, or injured extracellular matrix. The self-assembling materials generally have alternating hydrophilic or hydrophobic residues or hydrophobic and/or hydrophilic sections which allow the material to react or interact with the glycoproteins found in the ECM. Diseases in which treatment with these materials applied to or near the site in need of treatment include diabetic retinopathy, sepsis, burns, and certain neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's. The formulations can be administered by injection, spraying, topically or by catheter or via a wound dressing or other material to which it is applied and then applied to the site in need of treatment.
