Abstract
The amplification of the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensitivity for the foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) detection was studied using Poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) succinamic-acid dendrimers. The dendrimers were conjugated with the complementary annealed with the aptamers capable of binding specifically to FMD peptides. The tethered layer of the dendrimer-conjugated double-stranded(ds)-aptamers was formed on the SPR sensor Au surface via a thiol bond between the aptamers and Au. After the tethered layer was formed, the surface was taken out of the SPR equipment. Then, the ds-aptamers on the surface were denatured to collect the dendrimer-conjugated single-stranded(ss)-complementary. The surface with only the remaining ss-aptamers was transferred again to the equipment. Two types of the injections, the FMD peptide only and the dendrimer-conjugated ss-complementary followed by the FMD peptides, were performed on the surface. The sensitivity was increased 20 times with the conjugation of the dendrimers, but the binding rate of the peptides became more than two times slower.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is a significant dearth of clinical biochemistry researches to evaluate the facility of exploitation of folate targeted radioactive gold-labeled anti-cancer drugs against various cancer cell lines. OBJECTIVE The aim of this paper was to develop a gold-based compound with an efficient therapeutic potential against breast cancer. To this end, the synthesis of the 198Au/PAMAM-MPEG-FA composite was considered here. METHODS The radioactive gold (198Au) nanoparticles were encapsulated into Folic acid (FA)-targeted Polyamidoamine dendrimer (PAMAM) modified with Maleimide-Polyethylene glycol Succinimidyl Carboxymethyl ester (MPEG). After that, anticancer assessments of the prepared 198Au/PAMAM-MPEG-FA hybrid mater against breast cancer were investigated. Further studies were also devised to compare the anticancer capabilities of the 198Au/PAMAM-MPEG-FA composite with the synthesized P-MPEG, 197Au/P-MPEG, 197Au/P-MPEG-FA, 197Au/P-FA and 198Au/P-MPEG-FA conjugates. The prepared drugs were characterized by means of various analytical techniques. The radionuclidic purity of the 198Au/P-MPEG-FA solution was determined using High Purity Germanium (HPGe) spectroscopy and its stability in the presence of human serum was studied. The cell uptake and toxicity of the prepared drugs were evaluated in vitro, and some comparative studies of the toxicity of the drugs were conducted towards the MCF7 (Human breast cancer cell), 4T1 (Mice breast adenocarcinoma cell) and C2C12 (Mice muscle normal cell). RESULTS The results showed that cell uptake of 198Au/P-MPEG-FA nanoparticles is high in the 4T1 cell line and the order of uptake is as 4T1> MCF7> C2C12. Moreover, of the tested compounds, 198Au/P-MPEG-FA had the highest toxicity towards the cancerous 4T1 and MCF7 in all concentrations after 24, 48 and 72h (P < 0.001). Furthermore, the cytotoxicity of the drugs was concentration-dependent. CONCLUSION On the basis of the present research, 198Au/P-MPEG-FA has been proposed as a good candidate for the induction of cell death in breast cancer, although further experimental and clinical investigations are required.

Abstract
Molecular recognitions, causing supramolecular complex formation between a hyperbranched polymer molecule (polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer generation 3) with oppositely charged surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) in aqueous solution, were studied by using various spectroscopic techniques and calorimetric titration of heat change measurements. Spectroscopic measurements were performed using dynamic Stokes shift (DSS), rotational anisotropy decay, and translational diffusion of a fluorescent probe molecule coumarin 153 (C153) noncovalently attached to the dendrimer-surfactant complex. All these studies unanimously confirm that the critical aggregation concentration (CAC) of SDS falls to ∼0.8 mM (from its critical micelle concentration (CMC) ∼ 8 mM) in the presence of ∼0.2 mM dendrimer. Further studies of isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) measurement show that the CAC of SDS in the presence of dendrimer remains invariant to the dendrimer concentration. Complexation reaction between SDS and dendrimer is highly exothermic in nature. A maximum heat release (ΔH∼ -6.6 kJ/mol of SDS binding) was observed at a SDS-to-dendrimer mole ratio of ∼3-5; where up to 3 to 5 SDS molecules were encapsulated by one dendrimer molecule to form dendrimer-SDS encapsulation complex. When negatively charged SDS was replaced with a positively charged surfactant dodecyl-trimethylammonium-bromide (DTAB), we found that the DTAB hardly interacted with positively charged dendrimer due to the charge-charge repulsions.

Abstract
Management of prostate cancer is currently being pursued by systemic delivery of anticancer drugs, but it has drawbacks like nonspecific distribution, decreased bioavailability, coupled with adverse side effects. These problems have been resolved using nanomedicine-based anticancer drug delivery to improve the therapeutic index with higher drug dose and reduced nonspecific distribution. Targeting prostate tumor by delivering nanomedicine through locoregional route is more effective, than the systemic delivery, which can decrease systemic exposure of the therapeutics significantly. Therefore, in this article, we have reviewed the current prospects and challenges of prostate cancer therapy using nanomedicine, by providing a comprehensive description of advantages and limitations of the systemic route and locoregional route. Eventually, we have emphasized on the need for localized prostate cancer therapy developments using nanomedicines.

Abstract
Polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers have potential for biological applications as delivery systems for genes, drugs, and imaging agents into the brain, but their developmental neurotoxicity remains unknown. We investigated the effects of PAMAM dendrimers with various surface functional groups and multiple generations on neuronal differentiation using human neural progenitor cells at an equal mass concentration. Only PAMAM dendrimers containing amine (NH2) surface groups at concentrations of 10 μg/mL significantly reduced cell viability and neuronal differentiation, compared with non-amine-terminated dendrimers. PAMAM-NH2 with generation (G)3, G4, G5 G6, and G7 significantly decreased cell viability and inhibited neuronal differentiation from a concentration of 5 μg/mL, but G0, G1, and G2 dendrimers did not have any effect at this concentration. Cytotoxicity indices of PAMAM-NH2 dendrimers at 10 μg/mL correlated well with the zeta potentials of the particles. Surface group density and particle number in unit volume is more important characteristic than particle size to influence cytotoxicity for positive changed dendrimers. PAMAM-50% C12 at 1 μg/mL altered the expression level of the oxidative stress-related genes, ROR1, CYP26A1, and TGFB1, which is a DNA damage response gene. Our results indicate that PAMAM dendrimer exposure may have a surface charge-dependent adverse effect on neuronal differentiation, and that the effect may be associated with oxidative stress and DNA damage during development of neural cells.

Abstract
This study successfully evaluated gene delivery and transfection toward rat C6 glioma cell lines mediated by intrinsic blue fluorescent poly(amido amine) (PAMAM) dendrimer. We used three antisense oligonucleotides, (AS-ODN) p75, NGF1, and NGF2 for knocking down specific protein expressions. The three oligonucleotides were electrostatically associated with the photoluminescent amino-terminated PAMAM dendrimer to yield fluorescent complexes at various nitrogen-to-phosphorus (N/P) ratios. Compared with pristine PAMAM dendrimer and hyperbranched polyethylenimine (PEI), the fluorescent PAMAM dendrimer revealed lower in vitro cytotoxicity toward C6 cells, allowing us to transfect the cells with the AS-ODN complexes under a higher N/P ratio. Due to the intrinsic fluorescence, cellular uptake behavior could be directly analyzed by fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry, without additional fluorescence labeling. As expected, the result clearly suggested that the uptake efficiency increased as the N/P value increased. Furthermore, the quantified data obtained from flow cytometry indicated relatively higher uptake efficiency for the p75 complex, which is mainly due to different association patterns between the fluorescent dendrimer and AS-ODNs. At N/P = 20, atomic force microscopic analysis confirmed that the p75 complex formed well-condensed, spherical particles with dimensions less than 200 nm, but that NGF2 AS-ODN associated poorly with the dendrimer. Finally, Western blot analysis indicated that these complexes were capable of knocking down the specific protein expression to a certain level, being comparable to the hyperbranched PEI-mediated gene transfection. Our preliminary results clearly indicated that intrinsic fluorescent PAMAM dendrimers show promise as gene vehicles that can achieve delivery, transfection, and bioimaging at the same time.

Abstract
Biomimetic acryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (APC) was used to react with generation 5 poly(amido amine) (PAMAM) dendrimers (G5) via the Michael addition reaction between primary amino group of PAMAM dendrimers and acrylic functional group of APC. FTIR and (1)H NMR confirmed the success of surface modification of G5. The primary amino and phosphorylcholine (PC) group numbers of the surface engineered PAMAM dendrimers (G5-PC) were calculated to be 56 and 50 via (1)H NMR and potentiometric titration. Cell viability and cell morphology studies indicated that biomimetic phosphorylcholine surface engineering successfully lowered the cytotoxicity of G5 PAMAM dendrimers. The hydrophobic interior of G5-PC was used to incorporate anti-cancer drug Adriamycin (ADR) and the G5-PC showed sustained releasing behavior for ADR. Cell morphology and viability tests indicated that the drug-loaded G5-PC conjugate could effectively enter the cancer cells and inhibit the growth of cancer cells. Biomimetic phosphorylcholine surface engineered PAMAM dendrimers with lowered cytotoxicity and high cellular penetrating ability showed great potential for the biomedical applications as nanocarrier system.
