Arginine end-functionalized poly(L-lysine) dendrigrafts for the stabilization and controlled release of insulin.
Second generation biodegradable poly(l-lysine) dendrigrafts functionalized with 12-48 arginine end-groups interact, at physiological pH, with insulin affording dendrigraft/insulin complexes as established by dynamic light scattering, ζ-potential, circular dichroism and isothermal titration calorimetry. Binding occurs in two steps; at low dendrigraft/insulin molar ratios (< or = 0.07) interactio...
متن کاملElectroanalytical behavior of poly-L-lysine dendrigrafts at the interface between two immiscible electrolyte solutions.
In this work, the electrochemical behavior of nonredox-active poly-L-lysine dendrigraft molecules of four different generations was investigated at the interface between two immiscible electrolyte solutions (ITIES). The influence of the dendrigraft generation on the electrochemical response, sensitivity of the calibration curves, and limit of detection was studied. Cyclic voltammetry at the ITI...
متن کاملInteraction and transport of poly(L-lysine) dendrigrafts through liposomal and cellular membranes: the role of generation and surface functionalization.
Two generations of poly(l-lysine) dendrigrafts (DGLs) were studied with regard to their ability to interact with and translocate through liposomal and cellular membranes. Partial guanidinylation of the surface amino groups of the starting dendrigrafts afforded the guanidinylated derivatives whose membrane translocation properties were also assessed. Mixed liposomes, consisting of dihexadecyl ph...
متن کاملMixed poly(dopamine)/poly(L-lysine) (composite) coatings: from assembly to interaction with endothelial cells.
Engineered polymer films are of significant importance in the field of biomedicine. Poly(dopamine) (PDA) is becoming more and more a key player in this context. Herein, we deposited mixed films consisting of PDA and poly(L-lysine) (PLL) of different molecular weights. The coatings were characterized by quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring, atomic force microscopy, and X-ray p...
متن کاملCavity Waters Govern Insulin Association and Release: Inferences from Experimental Data and Molecular Dynamics Simulations
While a monomer of the ubiquitous hormone insulin is the biologically active form in the human body, its hexameric assembly acts as an efficient storage unit. However, the role of water molecules in the structure, stability and dynamics of the insulin hexamer is poorly understood. Here we combine experimental data with molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the shape, structure and stabi...
