title: Bio-inspired metal ions regulate the structure evolution of self-assembled peptide-based nanoparticles.
abstract: We report an assembly and transformation process of a supramolecular module, BP-KLVFF-RGD (BKR) in solution and on specific living cell surfaces for imaging and treatment. The BKR self-assembled into nanoparticles, which further transformed into nanofibers in situ induced by coordination with Ca(2+) ions.
