Synthesis and Thermoreversible Gelation of Coil-Rod Copolymers with a Dendritic Polyethylene Core and Multiple Helical Poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate) Arms. Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:4351. [PMID: 38006076 PMCID: PMC10675438 DOI: 10.3390/polym15224351] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2023] [Revised: 11/02/2023] [Accepted: 11/03/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Coil-rod copolymers with a dendritic polyethylene (DPE) core and multiple helical poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate) (PBLG) arms (DPE-(PBLG)n) were prepared by palladium-catalyzed copolymerization in tandem with ring-opening polymerization (ROP). Macroinitiator (DPE-(NH2)11) was firstly prepared by the group transformation of DPE-(OH)11 generated from palladium-catalyzed copolymerization of ethylene and acrylate comonomer. Coil-helical DPE-(PBLG)11 copolymers were prepared by ROP of γ-benzyl-L-glutamate-N-carboxyanhydride (BLG-NCA). These DPE-(PBLG)11 copolymers could form thermoreversible gels in toluene solvent, and the dendritic topology of the DPE core increased the critical gelation concentrations. The self-assembled nanostructure of gels was fully characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), and wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD), and the morphology of the fibrous structure was a twisted flat ribbon through a self-assembled nanoribbon mechanism. The self-assembled fibers formed by DPE-(PBLG45)11 are more heterogeneous and ramified than previously observed fibers formed by PBLG homopolymer and block copolymers.

Abstract
Properties of solvents such as polarity and H-bond-forming ability are critical for the formation of an organogel and have a significant impact on the gel behavior, as solvents are the majority of organogel systems. However, so far, there is still a lack of systematic studies regarding the effects of molecular structures of solvents on the characteristics of organogels. Motivated by revealing such a relationship, in this paper, we studied the morphologies of assemblies, gelation behaviors, and secondary structures of a pentapeptide termed EAF-5 in a wide variety of alcohols. The side chains and lengths of carbon chains of the solvent molecules were found to play a critical role in the self-assembly and gelation of EAF-5. EAF-5 was capable of self-assembling into fibers and entangling into a network in alcohols including ethanol, propanol, butanol, n-pentanol, and n-hexanol, which further immobilized the corresponding alcohols to form gels. In these organogels, increasing β-sheet secondary structures of the peptides were formed by introducing side chains and extending the length of primary alcohol molecules. We hypothesized that alcohol molecules with extended lengths and side chains reduced the gelator-solvent interactions and promoted the gelator-gelator interactions, resulting in the self-assembly of EAF-5 into fibril structures and development of gels. These findings provide a new sight into the interactions between gelators and solvents and are helpful for designing peptide-based organogelators.

Abstract
Self-assembly of short peptides has emerged as an interesting research field for a wide range of applications. Recently, several truncated fragments of long-chain peptides or proteins responsible for different neurodegenerative diseases were studied to understand whether they can mimic the property and function of native peptides or not. It was reported that such a kind of peptide adopts a β-sheet structure in the disease state. It was observed that aromatic amino acid-rich peptide fragments possess a high tendency to adopt a β-sheet conformation. In this article, we are first time reporting the crystal structure of two tetrapeptides: Boc-GAII-OMe (Peptide 1) and Boc-GGVV-OMe (Peptide 2), composed of aliphatic amino acids, and the sequences are similar to the Aβ-peptide fragments Aβ29-32 and Aβ37-40 , respectively. In the solid-state, they are self-assembled in an antiparallel β-sheet fashion. The peptide units are connected by the strong amide hydrogen-bonding (N-H···O) interactions. Apart from that, other noncovalent interactions are also present, which help to stabilize the cross-β-sheet arrangement. Interestingly, in the crystal structure of Peptide 1, noncovalent C···C interaction between the electron-deficient carbonyl carbon, and the electron-rich sp3-carbon atom is observed, which is quite rare in the literature. The calculated torsion angles for these peptides are lying in the β-sheet region of the Ramachandran plot. FT-IR studies also indicate the formation of an antiparallel β-sheet structure in the solid-state. Circular dichroism of the peptides in the aqueous solution also suggests the presence of predominantly β-sheet-like conformation in the aqueous solution. Under cross-polarized light, Congo Red stained both peptides showed green-gold color due to birefringence indicating their amyloidogenic nature. This result indicates that the short peptide composed of aliphatic amino acid is capable of forming a β-sheet structure in the absence of aromatic amino acid and also can mimic the function of the native amyloid peptide.

Abstract
We demonstrate doctor blading technique to fabricate high performance transistors made up of printed small molecular materials. In this regard, we synthesize a new soluble phthalocyanine, tetra-n-butyl peripheral substituted copper(II) phthalocaynine (CuBuPc), that can easily undergo gel formation upon ultrasonic irradiation, leading to the formation of three-dimensional (3D) network composed of one-dimensional (1D) nanofibers structure. Finally, taking the advantage of thixotropic nature of the CuBuPc organogel, we use the doctor blade processing technique that limits the material wastage for the fabrication of transistor devices. Due to the ultrasound induced stronger π-π interaction, the transistor fabricated by doctor blading based on CuBuPc organogel exhibits significant increase in charge carrier mobility in comparison with other solution process techniques, thus paving a way for a simple and economically viable preparation of electronic circuits.

Abstract
Two chiral synthetic β-dipeptides have been constructed, one with two trans-cyclobutane residues and the other with one trans and one cis fragment, 1 and 2, respectively, and investigated to get insight into the non-covalent interactions responsible for their self-assembly to form ordered aggregates, as well into parameters such as their morphology and size. Experimental evidence of the formation of these assemblies was provided by spectroscopy, microscopy and X-ray diffraction experiments that suggest the formation of nanoscale helical aggregates. This process involves a conformational change in the molecules of each dipeptide with respect to the preferred conformation of the isolated molecules in solution. A high-resolution NMR spectroscopy study allowed the determination of the dynamics of the gelation process in [D(8)]toluene and the sol-gel transition temperature, which was around 270 K in this solvent at a concentration of 15 mM. NMR spectroscopy experiments also provided some information about conformational changes involved in the sol-gel transition and also suggested a different gel packing for each dipeptide. These observations have been nicely explained by computational studies. The self-assembly of the molecules has been modelled and suggested a head-to-head molecular arrangement for 1 and a head-to-tail arrangement for 2 to give helical structures corresponding to hydrogen-bonded single chains. These chains interact with one another in an antiparallel way to afford bundles, the significant geometry parameters of which fit well to the main peaks observed in wide-angle X-ray diffraction spectra of the aggregates in the solid state.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to develop controlled drug delivery by network scaffolds based on self-assembling peptide RADAFI and RADAFII. These two peptides self-assembled into interconnected nanofibrilar network structures with distinct physical morphologies. The hydrogels were also utilized for entrapment and release of some model guests, promising their future application as a drug delivery vehicle. Fickian diffusion controlled the release kinetics. Furthermore, the obtained release function was dependent on both rational design of the peptides used for hydrogel formation and choice of the entrapped molecules. On the basis of the striking different releases of these two peptide scaffolds, we suggested that guest size and lipophilicity influenced the release competitively. The release of RADAFI system was dominated by guest size, and the guest lipophilicity controlled the release behavior in RADAFII system. In a word, this work would potentially provide a spatially and temporally controlled delivery system for some functional drugs in the future.
