SYMMETRY IN POLYMER SCIENCE

open access: yesComputers & Mathematics with Applications, 1986
AbstractStereoregularity and conformation of high polymers are reviewed in relation to symmetry. Stereoregularity of polypropylene is analyzed with two kinds of Bernoullian stochastic processes, while conformation of poly(vinylidene fluoride) in solution is related to that in the crystalline state.

Synthesis method of asymmetric gold particles. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Asymmetric particles can exhibit unique properties. However, reported synthesis methods for asymmetric particles hinder their application because these methods have a limited scale and lack the ability to afford particles of varied shapes.

KDM7A and KDM1A inhibition suppresses tumour promoting pathways in prostate cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Treatment resistance is a major challenge for patients with advanced prostate cancer. This study examined an alternative approach to target the major prostate cancer‐promoting pathway by targeting epigenetic factors, whose levels are higher in tumours.

Dynamic energy budget approach to evaluate antibiotic effects on biofilms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Quantifying the action of antibiotics on biofilms is essential to devise therapies against chronic infections. Biofilms are bacterial communities attached to moist surfaces, sheltered from external aggressions by a polymeric matrix.

Rethinking plastic waste: innovations in enzymatic breakdown of oil‐based polyesters and bioplastics

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Plastic pollution remains a critical environmental challenge, and current mechanical and chemical recycling methods are insufficient to achieve a fully circular economy. This review highlights recent breakthroughs in the enzymatic depolymerization of both oil‐derived polyesters and bioplastics, including high‐throughput protein engineering, de novo ...

Targeting TNBC: core–shell polycationic polyurea dendrimers with inherent anticancer activity

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Core–shell polycationic PURE dendrimers were tested in TNBC‐derived tumor models. Both formulations selectively targeted TNBC and effectively reduced tumor volume. PUREG4‐OEI48 suppressed tumor growth without detectable toxicity, whereas PUREG4‐OCEI24, despite showing efficacy, induced hepatic toxicity.

Segmented multiblock polyolefin compatibilizers from non-living metathesis chain-shuffling

open access: yesNature Communications
The mechanical properties of mixed plastics can be enhanced by block copolymer compatibilizer additives. Here we report a series of semi-crystalline/semi-crystalline linear multiblock copolymers of LLDPE and PP, the two most abundant plastics, from a non-

Ring-Opening Copolymerization of ε-Caprolactone and L-Lactide Catalyzed by Aluminum Complexes [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
In recent years, poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) and poly (lactic acid) (PLA) have been widely adopted as biodegradable materials, with applications ranging from simple packaging to sophisticated biomedical devices.

Eighty years of macromolecular science: from birth to nano-, bio- and self-assembling polymers—with slight emphasis on European contributions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
A definition of macromolecular science (as opposed to polymer science and engineering) is given, from which the year 1930 is derived as the year of its birth. The scope of treatment of this paper will be limited to solid technical polymers.
