Abstract
We report a straightforward method for creating large-area, microscale resolution patterns of functional amines on self-assembled monolayers by the photoinduced local acidification of a flat elastomeric stamp enriched with photoacid. The limited diffusivity of the photoactivated merocyanine acid in poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) enabled to confine efficient deprotection of N-tert-butyloxycarbonyl amino group (N-Boc) to line widths below 10 μm. The experimental setup is very simple and is built around the conventional HD-DVD optical pickup. The method allows cost-efficient, maskless, large-area chemical patterning while avoiding potentially cytotoxic photochemical reaction products. The activation of the embedded photoacid occurs within the stamp upon illumination with the laser beam and the process is fully reversible. Preliminary positive results highlight the possibility of repeatable use of the same stamp for the creation of different patterns.

Abstract
Poly(α-L-glutamic acid) (PGA) is a class of synthetic polypeptides composed of the monomeric unit α-L-glutamic acid. Owing to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, and non-immunogenicity, PGA-based nanomaterials have been elaborately designed for drug delivery systems. Relevant studies including the latest research results on PGA-based nanomaterials for drug delivery have been discussed in this work. The following related topics are summarized as: (1) a brief description of the synthetic strategies of PGAs; (2) an elaborated presentation of the evolving applications of PGA in the areas of drug delivery, including the rational design, precise fabrication, and biological evaluation; (3) a profound discussion on the further development of PGA-based nanomaterials in drug delivery. In summary, the unique structures and superior properties enables PGA-based nanomaterials to represent as an enormous potential in biomaterials-related drug delivery areas.

Abstract
Over the past few years, amino acids (AA) have emerged as promising biomaterials for the synthesis of functional polymers. Owing to the diversity of functional groups in amino acids, various polymerization methods may be used to make a wide range of well-defined functional amino-acid/peptide-based optically active polymers with varying polymer lengths, compositions, and designs. When incorporated with chirality and self-assembly, they offer a wide range of applications and are particularly appealing in the field of drug delivery, tissue engineering, and biosensing. There are several classes of these polymers that include polyamides (PA), polyesters (PE), poly(ester-amide)s (PEA)s, polyurethanes (PU)s, poly(depsipeptide)s (PDP)s, etc. They offer the ability to control functionality, conjugation, crosslinking, stimuli responsiveness, and tuneable mechanical/thermal properties. In this review, we present the recent advancements in the synthesis strategies for obtaining these amino acid-derived bio-macromolecules, their self-assembly properties, and the wealth of prevalent applications.

Anal Chim Acta 2018; 1045:123-131. [PMID: 30454567 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2018.09.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2018] [Revised: 09/04/2018] [Accepted: 09/08/2018] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
In this work, we presented a facile elution-free method for ultrasensitive enrichment of glycopeptides using two kinds of novel Ce-metal-organic frameworks (Ce-MOF) post-modified with hyaluronic acid (Ce-MOF@HA) and glutamic acid (Ce-MOF@Glu). Both of the synthesized materials remained stable in the loading buffer to enrich glycopeptides selectively and degrade in the eluent to release captured glycopeptides. Due to the dissolution of materials, the elution step of the enrichment process is omitted, resulting in an extremely high sensitivity (detection limit, 0.5 fmol/μL). Meanwhile, Ce-MOF@HA and Ce-MOF@Glu also possessed excellent selectivity with molar ratios of IgG and BSA digests being 1:1000 and 1:500, respectively. Noticeably, the practical applicability of the obtained materials was inspected by analyzing the glycopeptides enriched from human serum (2 μL) by nano-LC-MS, in which 434 N-glycopeptides from 182 N-glycoproteins (by Ce-MOF@HA) and 328 N-glycopeptides from 135 N-glycoproteins (by Ce-MOF@Glu) were detected, respectively. This work provides a new method to simplify the process of glycopeptides enrichment and also paves a novel way for the enrichment of trace targets from complex matrices.
