Understanding the Kinetics of Protein–Nanoparticle Corona Formation
When a pristine nanoparticle (NP) encounters a biological fluid, biomolecules spontaneously form adsorption layers around the NP, called "protein corona". The corona composition depends on the time-dependent environmental conditions and determines the NP's fate within living organisms. Understanding how the corona evolves is fundamental in nanotoxicology as well as medical applications. However...
متن کاملThe protein-nanoparticle interaction (protein corona) and its importance on the therapeutic application of nanoparticles
Nanobiotechnology has provided promising novel diagnostic and therapeutic strategies which capable to create a broad spectrum of nano-based imaging agents and medicines for human administrations. Several studies have demonstrated that the surface of nanomaterials is immediately coated with suspended proteins after contact with plasma or other biological fluids to form protein corona-nanoparticl...
متن کاملInfluence of Nanoparticle Size and Shape on Oligomer Formation of an Amyloidogenic Peptide.
Understanding the influence of macromolecular crowding and nanoparticles on the formation of in-register β-sheets, the primary structural component of amyloid fibrils, is a first step towards describing in vivo protein aggregation and interactions between synthetic materials and proteins. Using all atom molecular simulations in implicit solvent we illustrate the effects of nanoparticle size, sh...
متن کاملNanoparticle shape, thermodynamics and kinetics.
Nanoparticles can be beautiful, as in stained glass windows, or they can be ugly as in wear and corrosion debris from implants. We estimate that there will be about 70,000 papers in 2015 with nanoparticles as a keyword, but only one in thirteen uses the nanoparticle shape as an additional keyword and research focus, and only one in two hundred has thermodynamics. Methods for synthesizing nanopa...
متن کاملMechanism of hollow nanoparticle formation due to shape fluctuations.
Shape fluctuations in nanoparticles strongly influence their stability. Here, we introduce a quantitative model of such shape fluctuations and apply this model to the important case of Pt-shell/transition metal-core nanoparticles. By using a Gibbs distribution for the initial shapes, we find that there is typically enough thermal energy at room temperature to excite random shape fluctuations in...
