Journal ArticleDOI

The potent antimicrobial properties of cell penetrating peptide-conjugated silver nanoparticles with excellent selectivity for Gram-positive bacteria over erythrocytes

TL;DR: The cell penetrating peptide catalyzed formation of antimicrobial silver nanoparticles in N,N-dimethylformamide demonstrated a distinctly enhanced biocidal effect toward bacteria and pathogenic yeast, while minimizing the toxic effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polymeric micelles anchored with TAT for delivery of antibiotics across the blood-brain barrier.

TL;DR: Polymeric micelles self-assembled from cholesterol-conjugated poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and anchored with transcriptional activator TAT peptide (TAT-PEG-b-Col) were fabricated for delivery of antibiotics across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and proved to cross the BBB and enter the brain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Using mixed solvent to synthesize temperature sensitive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) gel with rapid dynamics properties.

TL;DR: A novel technique to prepare a fast response poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPA) gel is proposed by using water/acetone as a mixed solvent during the polymerization/crosslinking reaction, which leads to an expanded structure and a large swelling ratio of the gel in water at room temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Core–Shell–Corona Micelle Stabilized by Reversible Cross-Linkage for Intracellular Drug Delivery

TL;DR: With enhanced stability during circulation after administration, and accelerated intracellular drug release at the target site, the biocompatible and biodegradable shell-cross-linked polymeric micelle is promising as a drug vehicle for cancer chemotherapy.
