A Peptoid-Chelator Selective to Cu2+ That Can Extract Copper from Metallothionein-2 and Lead to the Production of ROS

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2023
Copper is an essential metal ion that is involved in critical cellular processes, but which can also exhibit toxic effects through its ability to catalyze reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation. Dysregulation of copper homeostasis has been implicated in

Cell Penetrating Peptoids (CPPos): Synthesis of a Small Combinatorial Library by Using IRORI MiniKans

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2012
Cell penetrating peptoids (CPPos) are potent mimics of the corresponding cell penetrating peptides (CPPs). The synthesis of diverse oligomeric libraries that display a variety of backbone scaffolds and side-chain appendages are a very promising source of

2D Assemblies Based on a Tetraphenylethylene D,L‐Cyclic Peptide Scaffold

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 137, Issue 52, December 22, 2025.
A new scaffold based on four nanotube‐forming cyclic peptide units attached to a tetraphenylethene (TPE) core with pH‐dependent self‐assembly that provides light‐emitting 2D nanosheets with controlled thickness is described. Abstract Two dimensional (2D) materials and aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) fluorophores have recently gained attention due to
