Dendritic closomers: novel spherical hybrid dendrimers.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report construction of monodisperse PAMAM-type dendrimers based on a dodecahydroxy closo-dodecaborane scaffold. The ideal sphericity and high functional group density of the icosahedral core permits ready access to hybrid dendrimers (dendritic closomers) having rigid, uniformly shaped exterior surfaces.

Enhanced bioactivity of internally functionalized cationic dendrimers with PEG cores.
Hybrid dendritic-linear block copolymers based on a 4-arm poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) core were synthesized using an accelerated AB2/CD2 dendritic growth approach through orthogonal amine/epoxy and thiol-yne chemistries. The biological activity of these 4-arm and the corresponding 2-arm hybrid dendrimers revealed an enhanced, dendritic effect with an exponential increase in cell internalization...
متن کاملDendrimers branch out to support mucosal integrity
» . . .These studies demonstrate that it is possible to generate synthetic dendrimers capable of interfering with specific residues on innate immune molecules with very profound downstream effects. « Dendritic polymer technology represents one of the most exciting areas at the interface of polymer chemistry and medical science. Dendritic polymers or dendrimers are symmetrical structurally perfe...
متن کاملNanoparticle-cored dendrimers: functional hybrid nanocomposites as a new platform for drug delivery systems.
Nanoparticle-cored dendrimers (NCDs) are now offering themselves as versatile carriers because of their colloidal stability, tunable membrane properties and ability to encapsulate or integrate a broad range of drugs and molecules. This kind of hybrid nanocomposite aims to combine the advantages of stimuli-responsive dendritic coatings, in order to regulate the drug release behaviour under diffe...
متن کاملSynthesis and characterization of nanoscale dendritic RGD clusters for potential applications in tissue engineering and drug delivery
Spatial control over the distribution and the aggregation of arginine-glycine-aspartate (RGD) peptides at the nanoscale significantly affects cell responses. For example, nanoscale clustering of RGD peptides can induce integrins to cluster, thus triggering complete cell signaling. Dendrimers have a unique, highly branched, nearly spherical and symmetrical structure with low polydispersity, nano...
متن کاملLow temperature synthesis of ordered mesoporous stable anatase nanocrystals: the phosphorus dendrimer approach.
The scarcity of low temperature syntheses of anatase nanocrystals prompted us to explore the use of surface-reactive fourth generation phosphorus-dendrimers as molds to control the nucleation and growth of titanium-oxo-species during the sol-gel mineralization process. Unexpectedly, the dendritic medium provides at low temperature, discrete anatase nanocrystals (4.8 to 5.2 nm in size), in marke...
