Adalimumab‐Poloxamer Conjugate for Bio‐Better: Enhanced Stability and Function
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Antibody‐polymer conjugates, particularly poloxamer conjugates, enhance antibody stability by improving tolerance to physicochemical stress and attenuating proteolysis by proteases. Furthermore, the higher affinity observed with poloxamer conjugation compared to standard PEGylation results in improved therapeutic efficacy in rheumatoid arthritis mouse ...

Crowding alone cannot account for cosolute effect on amyloid aggregation.
PLoS ONE, 2011 Amyloid fiber formation is a specific form of protein aggregation, often resulting from the misfolding of native proteins. Aimed at modeling the crowded environment of the cell, recent experiments showed a reduction in fibrillation halftimes for amyloid ...

Tunable Synthetic Hydrogel Modulates Hepatic Lineage Specification of Human Liver Organoid
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.In this study, a synthetic hydrogel is reported that supports the formation of hiPSC‐derived human liver organoids (HLOs). Hepatic lineage specification can be modulated via conjugation of RGD peptide to hydrogel: RGD‐conjugated hydrogels promote cholangiocyte differentiation, whereas RGD‐free hydrogels favor hepatocyte commitment of HLO cells.
