Nucleic Acid Based Fluorinated Derivatives: New Tools for Biomedical Applications

Applied Sciences, 2012
Nucleic acid-based fluorinated derivatives, e.g., nucleosides or oligonucleotides connected to highly fluorinated chains or labeled with one or more fluorine atoms, have been investigated recently due to their high potential for biomedical applications ...

Assembling aggregation‐induced emission with natural DNA to maximize donor/acceptor ratio for efficient light‐harvesting antennae

Aggregate, 2023
Arranging dense donors around a single acceptor for the assembly of efficient light‐harvesting antennas is a long‐standing challenge due to the intractable aggregation‐caused quenching of dense donors.

Molecular area dependences of monolayers at the air/water interface

JCIS Open, 2022
The quantum chemical approach and a thermodynamic model for amphiphilic monolayers are used to find the temperature dependence of the area per amphiphile molecule in a monolayer at the onset of liquid-expanded – liquid-condensed phase transition (Ac ...

Crystal engineering with short-chained amphiphiles: decasodium octa-n-butanesulfonate di-μ-chlorido-bis[dichloridopalladate(II)] tetrahydrate, a layered inorganic–organic hybrid material

Acta Crystallographica Section E: Crystallographic Communications, 2019
In the course of crystal-engineering experiments, crystals of the hydrated title salt, Na10[Pd2Cl6](C4H9SO3)8·4H2O, were obtained from a water/2-propanol solution of sodium n-butanesulfonate and sodium tetrachloridopalladate(II). In the crystal, sodium n-

Self‐assembling amphiphilic peptides

Journal of Peptide Science, 2014
The self‐assembly of several classes of amphiphilic peptides is reviewed, and selected applications are discussed. We discuss recent work on the self‐assembly of lipopeptides, surfactant‐like peptides and amyloid peptides derived from the amyloid‐βpeptide. The influence of environmental variables such as pH and temperature on aggregate nanostructure is

A Novel Disulfide-Containing Polycationic Amphiphile: 1,28-Di[(cholest-5-en-3β-yl)disulfanyl]-4,25-dioxo-3,8,12,17,21,26-hexaazaoctacosane Tetrahydrochloride

Molbank, 2018
The absence of highly effective delivery systems is a major challenge for gene therapy. Our work was aimed at the development of novel cationic liposomes possessing high transfection efficiency. For this purpose, a novel disulfide polycationic amphiphile

Naphthalimide-Based Amphiphiles: Synthesis and DFT Studies of the Aggregation and Interaction of a Simplified Model System with Water Molecules

Molecules
Systems containing amphiphilic/pathic molecules have the tremendous capacity to self-assemble under appropriate conditions to form morphologies with well-defined structural order (systematic arrangement), nanometer-scale dimensions, and unique properties.
