Engineering Lipid Nanoparticles for Precision RNA Delivery: Design Principles, Targeting Strategies, and Clinical Prospects

open access: yesCancer Nexus, Volume 2, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) represent the most clinically advanced platform for RNA delivery and have enabled major breakthroughs in vaccines and gene therapies. However, their broader application is still limited by inefficient extrahepatic delivery, immunogenicity, and insufficient control over tissue‐ and cell‐specific targeting. This review

Cis–Trans Amide Bond Rotamers in β-Peptoids and Peptoids: Evaluation of Stereoelectronic:Effects in Backbone and Side Chains [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Non-natural peptide analogs have significant potential for the development of new materials and pharmacologically active ligands. One such architecture, the β-peptoids (N-alkyl-β-alanines), has found use in a variety of biologically active compounds, but

Solid-Phase Synthesis and Circular Dichroism Study of β-ABpeptoids

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
The development of peptidomimetic foldamers that can form well-defined folded structures is highly desirable yet challenging. We previously reported on α-ABpeptoids, oligomers of N-alkylated β2-homoalanines and found that due to the presence ...

Ultra-Short Antimicrobial Peptoids Show Propensity for Membrane Activity Against Multi-Drug Resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Tuberculosis (TB) results in both morbidity and mortality on a global scale. With drug resistance on the increase, there is an urgent need to develop novel anti-mycobacterials.

Targeting Expanded CUG and CTG Repeats as a Therapeutic Approach for Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1 (DM1)

open access: yesChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 5, 13 March 2026.
DM1 is an RNA gain‐of‐function disease caused by CTG repeat expansion, producing toxic r(CUG)exp RNA that sequesters MBNL1 and impairs splicing. This review covers the field of CUG and CTG ligands identified or rationally designed as DM1 drug candidates, highlighting their molecular design, RNA‐ or DNA‐binding modes, in vitro affinities and ...

Assembly of short amphiphilic peptoids into nanohelices with controllable supramolecular chirality

open access: yesNature Communications
A long-standing challenge in bioinspired materials is to design and synthesize synthetic materials that mimic the sophisticated structures and functions of natural biomaterials, such as helical protein assemblies that are important in biological systems.

A Peptoid-Based Fluorescent Sensor for Cyanide Detection

open access: yesMolecules, 2016
Peptoids, N-substituted glycine oligomers, are versatile peptidomimetics with diverse biomedical applications. However, strategies to the development of novel fluorescent peptoids as chemical sensors have not been extensively explored, yet.

Peptomer Linkers Enable Kinetic Control over Co‐Delivery of Multiple Chemotherapeutics

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 11, 20 March 2026.
A key challenge in combinatorial chemotherapeutic drug delivery is independent control over release kinetics, especially with drugs of similar size and structure. Here, peptoid substitutions to proteolytically degradable peptides enabled the design of fast and slow‐releasing drug linkers.
