- Epidermal Growth Factor–Ferritin H-Chain Protein Nanoparticles for Tumor Active Targeting
Xu Li, Lihui Qiu, Pei Zhu, Xinyi Tao, Tadayuki Imanaka, Jing Zhao, Youguo Huang, Yaping Tu and Xuni Cao
Article first published online: 23 MAY 2012 | DOI: 10.1002/smll.201200066
Epidermal growth factor (EGF)–human ferritin H-chain protein (FTH1) nanoparticles are prepared by using a genetic method. The EGF-FTH1 nanoparticles show a precisely assembled nanometer-scale structure, and small size with narrow size distribution. Due to specific binding to EGF receptor (EGFR)-positive cancer cells and the enhanced permeability and retention effect, in vivo tumor accumulation is observed.
- M13 Bacteriophage-Activated Superparamagnetic Beads for Affinity Separation
Julien Muzard, Mark Platt and Gil U. Lee
Article first published online: 23 MAY 2012 | DOI: 10.1002/smll.201200099
The M13 bacteriophage is assembled on superparamagnetic beads through the pIII proteins on the end of the viron or the pVIII proteins on the sides of the viron.
- Influence of the Molecular Structure and Morphology of Self-Assembled 1,3,5-Benzenetrisamide Nanofibers on their Mechanical Properties
Daniel Kluge, Julia C. Singer, Jens W. Neubauer, Frank Abraham, Hans-Werner Schmidt and Andreas Fery
Article first published online: 23 MAY 2012 | DOI: 10.1002/smll.201200259
The mechanical properties of supramolecular nanofibers are revealed by means of nanomechanical bending tests. Different molecular structures have a strong influence on the diameter and stiffness of the fibers. In contrast, the Young's modulus is surprisingly little affected by differences in the chemical structure.
