Cerium oxide nanoparticle-mediated self-assembly of hybrid supramolecular hydrogels
Patil, Avinash J.,Kumar, Ravinash Krishna,Barron, Nicholas J.,Mann, Stephen
, p. 7934 - 7936 (2012)
Hybrid supramolecular hydrogels are prepared by non-enzymatic dephosphorylation of N-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl tyrosine-(O)-phosphate (FMOC-Tyr-P) using catalytic cerium oxide nanoparticles. The organic-inorganic hydrogels exhibit enhanced viscoelastic p
Toward the Rational Design of Galactosylated Glycoclusters That Target Pseudomonas aeruginosa Lectin A (LecA): Influence of Linker Arms That Lead to Low-Nanomolar Multivalent Ligands
Wang, Shuai,Dupin, Lucie,No?l, Mathieu,Carroux, Cindy J.,Renaud, Louis,Géhin, Thomas,Meyer, Albert,Souteyrand, Eliane,Vasseur, Jean-Jacques,Vergoten, Gérard,Chevolot, Yann,Morvan, Fran?ois,Vidal, Sébastien

Anti-infectious strategies against pathogen infections can be achieved through antiadhesive strategies by using multivalent ligands of bacterial virulence factors. LecA and LecB are lectins of Pseudomonas aeruginosa implicated in biofilm formation. A series of 27 LecA-targeting glycoclusters have been synthesized. Nine aromatic galactose aglycons were investigated with three different linker arms that connect the central mannopyranoside core. A low-nanomolar (Kd=19 nm, microarray) ligand with a tyrosine-based linker arm could be identified in a structure–activity relationship study. Molecular modeling of the glycoclusters bound to the lectin tetramer was also used to rationalize the binding properties observed.

Neutrophils can responsively release reactive oxygen species (ROS) to actively combat infections by exogenous stimulus and cascade enzyme catalyzed bio-oxidation. A supramolecular nanogel is now used as an artificial neutrophil by enzymatic interfacial se

A solution phase method was adopted for the synthesis of proline-containing cyclic pentapeptide 2 and total synthesis of naturally occurring cyclic heptapeptide Reniochalistatin B 3. For the synthesis of 3, both divergent and convergent strategies were used to improve the overall yield from 12 to 25%. Different N and C terminal modified linear analogs and congeners of 2 and 3 were synthesized. Both cyclic peptides 2 and 3 and their linear analogs/congeners were evaluated for anti-cancer activity against HeLa cell line, among which pentapeptide 2 h and hexapeptide 3n with N-terminal protected hexafluoroisopropyl carbamates (HFIPC) interestingly showed higher cytotoxicity with an IC50 of 2.73 and 4.3 μM, respectively compared to their Boc-protected analogs 2a (IC50 20 μM) and 3c (IC50 38.51 μM) and cyclic peptides 2 (>100 μM) and 3 (47 μM). These results were further validated by biological experiments such as colony formation and wound healing assays.
Enzyme Instructed Self-assembly of Naphthalimide-dipeptide: Spontaneous Transformation from Nanosphere to Nanotubular Structures that Induces Hydrogelation

Understanding the structure-morphology relationships of self-assembled nanostructures is crucial for developing materials with the desired chemical and biological functions. Here, phosphate-based naphthalimide (NI) derivatives have been developed for the
