Surface Engineered Carboxymethylchitosan/Poly(amidoamine) Dendrimer Nanoparticles for Intracellular Targeting
Novel highly branched biodegradable macromolecular systems have been developed by grafting carboxymethylchitosan (CMCht) onto low generation poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers. Such structures organize into sphere-like nanoparticles that are proposed to be used as carriers to deliver bioactive molecules aimed at controlling the behavior of stem cells, namely their proliferation and differentia...
متن کاملIntracellular targeting with engineered proteins
If the isolation, production, and clinical use of insulin marked the inception of the age of biologics as therapeutics, the convergence of molecular biology and combinatorial engineering techniques marked its coming of age. The first wave of recombinant protein-based drugs in the 1980s demonstrated emphatically that proteins could be engineered, formulated, and employed for clinical advantage. ...
متن کاملTumor microvasculature targeting with dendrimer-entrapped gold nanoparticles.
Monodisperse dendrimer-entrapped gold nanoparticles (diameter = 3.0 nm) were prepared using G5 poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimer functionalized with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FI) and Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) peptide as template; in vitro targeting efficacy to integrin receptor expressing cells was confirmed by flow cytometry, confocal microscopy, and ICP-MS.
متن کاملImproved biocompatibility of surface functionalized dendrimer- entrapped gold nanoparticles{
Gold nanoparticles (NPs) have recently received immense scientific and technological interest because of their extensive applications in biology, catalysis, and nanotechnology. In most of these applications, the gold NP surfaces are modified with different functionalities. For instance, alkanethiol and alkylamine molecules are used for phase transfer of gold NPs, and oligonucleotide molecules a...
