To overcome the low efficiency and cytotoxicity associated with most non-viral DNA delivery systems we developed a purely peptidic self-assembling system that is able to entrap single …
Peptide amphiphiles (PAs), consisting of a hydrophobic alkyl chain covalently bound to a hydrophilic peptide sequence, possess a versatile molecular design due to their combined …
In this study, oligopeptide amphiphile containing three blocks of amino acids, Ac-(AF) 6-H5- K15-NH2 (FA32), were synthesized and evaluated as carriers for co-delivery of drug and …
Ever more emerging combined treatments exploiting synergistic effects of drug combinations demand smart, responsive codelivery carriers to reveal their full potential. In this study, a …
