This study investigates transgeden (TGD) dendrimers (polyamidoamine (PAMAM)-type dendrimers modified with rigid polyphenylenevinylene (PPV) cores) and compares their heparin-binding ability with commercially available PAMAM dendrimers. Although the peripheral ligands are near-identical between the two dendrimer families, their heparin binding is very different. At low generation (G1), TGD outpe...

The polyamidoamide (PAMAM) class of dendrimers was one of the first dendrimers synthesized by Tomalia and co-workers at Dow. Since its discovery the PAMAMs have stimulated many discussions on the structure and dynamics of such hyperbranched polymers. Many questions remain open because the huge conformation disorder combined with very similar local symmetries have made it difficult to characteri...

In this work, WO3 nanoparticle decorated magnetic poliamidoamin (PAMAM) dendrimer nanocomposites were fabricated and used as a catalyser for the reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP). Fe3O4 superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles core. Magnetic produced using hydrothermal synthesis. core was covered with PAMAM dendrimers. The dendrimers in covering process 2nd generation which proposed to protec...

some organic molecules can be isomerized upon photoirradiation and when accompanied by a change in the visible absorption spectrum, it is called photochromism. azobenzenes are important part of molecular machines and nanotechnology, which are this phenomenon is called photoisomerization azobenzene (azo) chromophores , and have been incorporated into a wide variety of materials and molecular arc...

The use of data mining techniques in the field of nanomedicine has been very limited. In this paper we demonstrate that data mining techniques can be used for the development of predictive models of the cytotoxicity of poly(amido amine) (PAMAM) dendrimers using their chemical and structural properties. We present predictive models developed using 103 PAMAM dendrimer cytotoxicity values that wer...

Poly(amido amine) (PAMAM) dendrimers have been considered as possible delivery systems for anticancer drugs. One potential advantage of these carriers would be their use in oral formulations, which will require absorption in the intestinal lumen. This may require the opening of tight junctions which may be enabled by reducing the Ca2+ concentration in the intestinal lumen, which has been shown ...

We report, for the first time, on the preparation, characterization and in vitro testing of poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) microparticles loaded with polyamidoamine (PAMAM)-plasmid DNA (pDNA) dendriplexes. Loading of pDNA into the PLGA microparticles increased by 150% when pDNA was first complexed with PAMAM dendrimers relative to loading of pDNA alone. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM)...
