Journal ArticleDOI

MOF-Mediated Destruction of Cancer Using the Cell's Own Hydrogen Peroxide

TL;DR: In vitro experiments demonstrate that this novel nanoparticle is cytotoxic to cancer cells (HeLa) through generation of OH• inside the cells, and a new type of agent for controlled hydroxyl radical generation using the Fenton reaction to kill the tumor cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ring opening polymerization of α-amino acids: advances in synthesis, architecture and applications of polypeptides and their hybrids.

TL;DR: Key architectures obtained through NCA ROP or in combination with other polymerization methods are reviewed, as these play an important role in the wide range of applications towards which polypeptides have been applied.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultrasound and Sonochemistry for Radical Polymerization: Sound Synthesis

TL;DR: The fundamental processes that can lead to either the homolytic cleavage of polymer chains, or the sonolysis of solvent (or other) small molecules, under the application of ultrasound are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integrin Clustering Matters: A Review of Biomaterials Functionalized with Multivalent Integrin-Binding Ligands to Improve Cell Adhesion, Migration, Differentiation, Angiogenesis, and Biomedical Device Integration.

TL;DR: The techniques that enable the fabrication of nanopatterned materials with nanoscale clusters of ligands that promote both integrin occupancy and clustering of the receptors are introduced and the improved biological effects that have been achieved are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Macroporous Hydrogels Composed Entirely of Synthetic Polypeptides: Biocompatible and Enzyme Biodegradable 3D Cellular Scaffolds.

TL;DR: TheseCryogels were shown to be enzymatically biodegradable and demonstrated excellent biocompatibility, cell attachment and cell proliferation profiles with mammalian fibroblast (NIH-3T3) cells, demonstrating the appeal of these novel cryogels as highly suitable cellular scaffolds.
