Journal ArticleDOI
Self-assembly of peptides to nanostructures
TL;DR: This review focuses on this emerging area, the recent advances in peptide self-assembly, and formation of different nanostructures, such as tubular structures, fibers, vesicles, and spherical and rod-coil structures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cell-penetrating homochiral cyclic peptides as nuclear-targeting molecular transporters.
TL;DR: The design and evaluation of amphipathic homochiral l-cyclic peptides for potential applications as CPPs and/or as molecular transporters of bioactive compounds are reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design and biological evaluation of cell-penetrating peptide-doxorubicin conjugates as prodrugs.
TL;DR: Data suggest that cyclic [W(RW)(4)]-Dox can be used as a potential prodrug for improving the cellular delivery and retention of Dox.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cyclic peptide-capped gold nanoparticles as drug delivery systems
TL;DR: Data suggest that cyclic peptide-capped gold nanoparticles can be used as potential noncovalent prodrugs for delivery of antiviral and anticancer agents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced Cellular Uptake of Short Polyarginine Peptides through Fatty Acylation and Cyclization
Donghoon Oh,Amir Nasrolahi Shirazi,Amir Nasrolahi Shirazi,Kevin Northup,Brian Sullivan,Rakesh Tiwari,Rakesh Tiwari,Marco Bisoffi,Keykavous Parang,Keykavous Parang +9 more
TL;DR: Results showed that a combination of acylation by long chain fatty acids and cyclization on short arginine-containing peptides can improve their cell-penetrating property, possibly through efficient interaction of rigid positively charged R and hydrophobic dodecanoyl moiety with the corresponding residues in the cell membrane phospholipids.
