Journal ArticleDOI
Erythrocyte membrane is an alternative coating to polyethylene glycol for prolonging the circulation lifetime of gold nanocages for photothermal therapy.
TL;DR: The results indicate that the long circulating RBC-AuNCs may facilitate the in vivo applications of AuNCs, and the R BC-membrane stealth coating technique may pave the way to improved efficacy of PPT modulated by noble metal nanoparticles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Availability of the basal planes of graphene oxide determines whether it is antibacterial.

TL;DR: It is found that noncovalent adsorption on GO basal planes may account for the deactivation of GO's bactericidal activity and this deactivation mechanism was shown to be extrapolatable to GO's cytotoxicity against mammalian cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
HIV TAT Forms Pores in Membranes by Inducing Saddle-Splay Curvature: Potential Role of Bidentate Hydrogen Bonding†
TL;DR: TATPTD synthesized with d-amino acids enters cells as efficiently as the native form, thereby indicating that the mechanism of transduction is receptor independent; this conclusion is consistent with recent results that suggest that the TAT PTD may enter cells through receptor-independent macropinocytosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surface-bound reactive oxygen species generating nanozymes for selective antibacterial action
TL;DR: In this article, the surface-bound reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated by nano-enzymes was shown to selectively kill bacterial cells over mammalian cells and effectively delayed the onset of bacterial resistance emergence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthetic antimicrobial oligomers induce a composition-dependent topological transition in membranes.

TL;DR: Using synchrotron small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), this paper showed that observed antibacterial activity correlates with an AMO-induced topological transition of small unilamellar vesicles into an inverted hexagonal phase, in which hexagonal arrays of 3.4-nm water channels defined by lipid tubes are formed.
