TL;DR: This review treats the biological properties of the various anionic calix[n]arenes, both as soluble forms and in the colloidal state, as well as their interaction with model membranes.

TL;DR: It was found that in spite of the presence of oligo(ethylene glycol) substituents, the beta-cyclodextrin vesicles retain their characteristic affinity for adamantane carboxylate, and can function as host bilayer membranes that recognize small guest molecules by specific noncovalent interaction.

TL;DR: An overview of the studies, by our group and other research groups, that led to the elucidation of biological and biopharmaceutical activity of these calixarenes can be found in this article.

TL;DR: The study of the effects of short time thermal treatment revealed that the SLNs are not affected by one freezing-defreezing cycle and are stable at 100 degrees C in suspension and it is difficult to reconstitute the SLN suspensions after freeze-drying.

TL;DR: Findings on activator-carrier and activation-membrane interactions are discussed as supportive of arene-templated guanidinium-carboxylate pairing and interface-directed translocation as possible origins of the superb performance of higher arene carboxylates as activators.
