Solvent Effects on the Conformational Preferences of 2,6‐Pyridylcarboxamide Foldamers
The marked effect of organic solvents and water/methanol mixtures on the conformational preferences of a soluble chiral foldamer has been established in a diverse array of seventeen distinct environments. ABSTRACT The marked influence of organic solvents and water on the conformational preferences of a chiral, soluble 2,6‐pyridylcarboxamide foldamer ...

Membrane-targeted push-pull azobenzenes for the optical modulation of membrane potential
We introduce a family of membrane-targeted azobenzenes (MTs) with a push-pull character as a new tool for cell stimulation. These molecules are water soluble and spontaneously partition in the cell membrane.

1,2‐Diazetidines − Structure, Synthesis, and Functionalization
1,2‐Diazetidines are saturated four‐membered heterocycles featuring two adjacent nitrogen atoms. Despite recent advances in their synthesis and promising potential in medicinal chemistry, the chemistry of these cyclic hydrazines remains underexplored.

The ability of photoacids to increase their acidity in response to light irradiation (excited state proton transfer, ESPT) makes them attractive building blocks for the design of stimuli‐responsive copolymers. In this contribution, we present highly biocompatible polyphotoacids based on poly(2‐oxazoline)s bearing 1‐hydroxypyrene units. Low cytotoxicity,

Photoswitchable glycoligands targeting Pseudomonas aeruginosa LecA
Biofilm formation is one of main causes of bacterial antimicrobial resistance infections. It is known that the soluble lectins LecA and LecB, produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, play a key role in biofilm formation and lung infection.

From 0D to 3D liquid crystal elastomers architectures: Fabrications and applications
This review presents a dimension‐oriented overview of liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs), highlighting their molecular alignment, fabrication strategies, and programmable deformations from 0D particles to 3D architectures. Emphasis is placed on how dimensionality guides design principles, enables diverse actuation modes, and bridges fundamental ...

This Perspective discusses the potential of stimuli‐responsive liquid crystal polymer bio‐interfaces in modulating cell behavior as next generation dynamic artificial scaffolds. Unlike current artificial biomaterials that have static properties, LCPs offer fast, reversible, and spatially programmable deformation that reflects the dynamic properties of ...
