a Working principle of supramolecular hydrogels cross-linked via host–guest interactions. b The decrease in the bulk elastic modulus is linearly proportional to the log C of host/guest molecules dissolved in the medium. c Discrete and reversible control of myoblast cells on the same substrate incubated with media containing different amounts of free competitors
