Polypropylene mesh for hernia repair with controllable cell adhesion/de-adhesion properties
(Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2020-01-02)
Article
Open AccessHerein, a versatile bilayersystem, composed by a polypropylene(PP)mesh and a covalently bonded poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) hydrogel, is reported. The cell adhesion mechanism was successfully modulated ... -

Article
Open AccessGiven that the copolymers of complex topology and composition are at the forefront of multifunctional materials research, this work reports aboutan amphiphilic random, heterografted copolymer of ... -
Biominerals formed by DNA and calcium oxalate or hydroxyapatite: a comparative study
(2019-09-10)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyBiominerals formed by DNA and calcium oxalate (CaOx) or hydroxyapatite (HAp), the most important and stable phase of calcium phosphate) have been examined and compared using a synergistic combination of computer simulation ... -
2,7-Linked N-methylcarbazole copolymers by combining the macromonomer approach and the oxidative electrochemical polymerization
(2019-05-03)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe preparation of copolymers bearing N-methylcarbazole and 2,7-linked 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene units has been carried out using the N-methyl-2,7-di(2-(3,4-ethylenedioxythienyl))carbazole monomer, which has been chemically ... -
A molecular dynamics study on glucose molecular recognition by a non-enzymatic selective sensor based on a conducting polymer
(Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2019-01-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyPoly(hydroxymethyl-3,4-ethylendioxythiophene) (PHMeDOT), a very electroactive polythiophene derivative bearing a dioxane ring fused onto the thiophene ring and an exocyclic hydroxymethyl substituent, is able to electrocatalyze ... -
Phage-display-derived peptide binds to human CD206 and modeling reveals a new binding site on the receptor
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2019-03-07)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyWe recently identified a tumor-homing peptide (mUNO, sequence: “CSPGAK”) that specifically interacts with mouse CD206 to target CD206/MRC1-expressing tumor-associated macrophages in mice. Here, we report studies on the ... -
Expanding the limits of amide-triazole isosteric substitution in bisamide-based physical gels
(Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2019-01-01)
Article
Open AccessGelation of organic solvents using N,N0-((1S,2S)-cyclohexane-1,2-diyl)didodecanamide (C12–Cyc) is driven by its self-assembly via antiparallel hydrogen bonds and van der Waals intermolecular interactions. In this work we ... -
Tailoring the self-assembly of a tripeptide for the formation of antimicrobial surfaces
(2019-05-14)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe accumulation of bacteria on surfaces is currently one of the greatest concerns f or the supply of proper health, water and energy. Here, we describe the mechanism by which a single peptide forms two ... -
Cell responses to electrical pulse stimulation for anticancer drug release
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2019-08-01)
Article
Open AccessElectrical stimulation is an attractive approach to tune on-demand drug release in the body as it relies on simple setups and requires typically 1 V or less. Although many studies have been focused on the development of ... -
Study on the control of porosity in films of polythiophene derivatives
(Elsevier, 2019-11-07)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyConducting polymers typically exhibit different oxidation states, which are easily interchangeable among them by means of the application of an electrical potential. In this work, we present a theoretical and experimental ... -
Biomimetic hybrid membranes: incorporation of transport proteins/peptides into polymer supports
(2019-01-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyMolecular sensing, water purification and desalination, drug delivery, and DNA sequencing are some striking applications of biomimetic hybrid membranes. These devices take advantage of biomolecules, which have gained ...
