Bio‐Inspired, Zwitterionic Copolymers with Amphiphilic Character

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Zwitterionic copolymers based on arginine‐derived monomers are produced by xanthate‐supported photo‐iniferter reversible‐addition‐fragmentation chain‐transfer polymerization. Experiments in relevant conditions show that the designed (co)polymers hardly interact with biologically relevant proteins and enzymes such as bovine serum albumine (BSA), fetal ...

Polymerized Pro‐Estrogen Microneedles via Two Photon Polymerization

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Acrylic pro‐drugs of 17β‐estradiol were subjected to spatially controlled two‐photon polymerization to create bespoke microneedle geometries with potential biomedical applications for long‐term transdermal hormone delivery. ABSTRACT Two‐photon polymerization (TPP) is a powerful technique to create microscale structures with high precision, offering ...

Diacetylene‐Functionalized Glycan Mimetics for Receptor‐Mediated Cluster Imprinting in Model Membranes

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Diacetylene‐containing glycan mimetics cluster upon selective lectin binding in GUVs. Subsequent irradiation leads to the formation of fluorescent polymer clusters, while non‐clustered glycan mimetics remain unaffected in the membrane. ABSTRACT The glycocalyx, a dense layer of glycoproteins and glycolipids on eukaryotic cells, is essential for cellular

Mass Spectrometry Structural Proteomics Enabled by Limited Proteolysis and Cross‐Linking

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The exploration of protein structure and function stands at the forefront of life science and represents an ever‐expanding focus in the development of proteomics. As mass spectrometry (MS) offers readout of protein conformational changes at both the protein and peptide levels, MS‐based structural proteomics is making significant strides in the

Antithrombin: Deficiency, Diversity, and the Future of Diagnostics

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Our healthcare system provides reactive sick‐care, treating patients after symptoms have appeared by prescription of generic and often suboptimal therapy. This strategy brings along high costs and high pressure which is not sustainable.

Advancements in Mass Spectrometry‐Based Glycomics in Food and Nutritional Science

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This review highlights advancements in mass spectrometry (MS)‐based glycomics in food and nutritional science. Carbohydrates, which are vital for human health, exhibit complex structures, making their analysis challenging. MS has become an indispensable tool for elucidating the structures of carbohydrates, including glycans, through soft ...

Ion Activation Methods for Top‐Down Proteomics

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mass spectrometry (MS) has emerged as a premier method used to characterize the sequences of proteins. Top‐down proteomics aims to capture the multiple sources of structural diversity reflected in proteins, such as those that arise from alternative RNA splicing events or the addition of post‐translational modifications. Tandem MS (i.e., MS/MS)

Biomarkers of Leucine‐Rich Repeat Kinase 2 (LRRK2) and Lysosomal Dysfunction in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Common and rare genetic variants in leucine‐rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) have been linked with sporadic and familial Parkinson's disease (PD). Recently, we discovered that common genetic variation near the LRRK2 locus determined survival in progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP).

Seeing Invisible Oligomers: Rethinking α‐Synuclein Pathology Through Proximity Ligation Assay

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Parkinson's disease (PD) and multiple system atrophy are defined by α‐synuclein (αSYN)‐positive inclusions – Lewy bodies (LBs) and glial cytoplasmic inclusions – yet mounting evidence indicates that these inclusions represent only a fraction of disease‐relevant pathology.
