Abstract:

Amphiphilic block and graft copolymers have been studied because of the possibility of tailoring their complex and fascinating chemical properties. Potential applications include wetting agents, foaming agents, plastic modifiers as well as biomedical applications in drug delivery, owing to their biocompatible and low toxic nature. This thesis describes the study of a series of amphiphilic block copolymers, known as Pluronics, and their aqueous interaction with a hydrophobic drug, flurbiprofen. Synthesis and characterisation of novel graft copolymers with interesting associative behaviour that

Abstract:

Funtional εCL monomers have been successfully synthesised utilising a primary amine (protected as a CBZ or BOC carbamate) and also a protected ketone (using an acetal protecting group). Amine derivatives were synthesised from the commercially available trans-4-aminocyclohexanol. The acetal protected ketone was synthesised from the commercially available 1,4-cyclohexanedione monoethylene acetal. The subsequent exposure of these monomers to ring opening polymerisation conditions (using stannous octanoate) in the presence of εCL, yielded random copolymers with a functionalised polyester backbone.

Abstract:

Biomaterials serve as interventional tools in medicine to treat, improve or replace diseased tissues, organs or function of the body. Although several polymeric biomaterials already exist, they often present challenges, at material level, such as non-biodegradability, degradation into acidic by-products or tissue incompatibility, or at functional level such as failure to sustain prolonged release of therapeutic payload for a desired period. Research has been focused on investigating new polymeric candidates to address these problems of current systems. The use of renewable resources to generat

Abstract:

Ordered mesoporous materials (OMMs) are characterized by high surface area (up to 1000 m2/g), high pore volume (1-3 cm3/g) and narrow pore size (2-30 nm) distribution. Recently, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs), a subclass of OMMs, have had great development as nanocarriers for drug delivery, particularly for cancer treatment. The research activity of my PhD work was aimed to study SBA-15 and MCM-41 mesoporous silica samples for biomedical applications. The texture and the structure of the synthesized materials were characterized through N2 adsorption/desorption isotherms, SAXS, and TEM.

Abstract:

Genetic studies have led to the identification of several candidate genes, some novel and others established, that may contribute to the risk of developing neuropsychiatric disorders. For example, dopamine receptor genes are established candidates for a number of psychiatric disorders such as Parkinson’s Disease, alcohol addiction and mood disorders. On the other hand, a gene of unknown function, AUTS2 (Autism susceptibility candidate 2), has recently been associated with alcohol consumption in a GWAS meta-analysis performed by our group.

As a result, the integration between marketing and operations as core functions of a manufacturing organisation (Slack et al., 2013) has increasingly received attention from many academics and practitioners (e.g., Hausman et al., 2002; O’Leary-Kelly & Flores, 2002; Prabhaker, 2001; Swink &

Large bone defects pose a significant clinical challenge currently lacking an adequate therapeutic solution. Bone tissue engineering (BTE) therapies aim to provide that solution by combining structural scaffolds, bioactive factors, and/or osteogenic cells. Cellular therapies are likely vital to repair severe defects in patients lacking sufficient endogenous cells. Stem cells are attractive cell choices due to their osteogenic differentiation and extensive proliferation abilities, but their therapeutic potential is still uncertain, as studies comparing stem cell sources and delivery methods

Cell cycle-related kinase (CCRK) is a 42 KDa serine/threonine protein kinase homologous to Cdk1, 2 and 7.

However, the mechanistic role of CCRK in tumorigenicity is still not completely understood.

Drug delivery systems in the size range of ~ 10-250 nm are enabling tools for site-specific targeting and controlled release applications.

Specifically, micelle-based drug carrier systems have emerged as promising tools for site-specific delivery and controlled release applications. Despite several advantages over conventional drugs, some limitations of micelle-based drug delivery have also been reported

The present work describes a selection of strategies for the synthesis of functional aliphatic polycarbonates.

As the end-group functionality was identical in all polymers, the differences observed in DNA binding and in vitro transfection studies were directly related to the length of the hydrophobic poly(trimethylene carbonate) backbone and the number of functional end-groups.

An aqueous droplet in a solution of lipids in oil acquires a lipid monolayer coat, and two such droplets adhere to form a bilayer at their interface. Networks of droplets have been constructed in this way that function as light sensors, batteries and electrical circuits by using membrane proteins incorporated into the bilayers. However, the droplets have been confined to a bulk oil phase, which precludes direct communication with physiological environments. Further, the networks typically have been assembled manually, which limits their scale and complexity. This thesis addresses these limitat

Abstract:

In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird eine modulare Reaktionssequenz von zwei aufeinanderfolgenden chemoselektiven Umwandlungen vorgestellt: Es wird gezeigt, dass Vinyl- und Ethynylphosphonamidate chemoselektiv mit Cysteinen von Proteinen und Antikörpern reagieren. Weiterhin wird gezeigt, dass elektrophile Phosphonamidate durch eine vorhergehende chemoselektive Staudinger-Phosphonit Reaktion zwischen Aziden und ungesättigten Phosphoniten in das gewünschte Molekül eingebaut werden können. Hierbei wird ein elektronenreiches Phosphonit in ein elektronenarmes Phosphonamidat umgewandelt, welches somit fü

Abstract:

Gene transfer to the brain is a promising therapeutic strategy for a variety of neurodegenerative disorders including Parkinson‟s disease (PD). PD is the second most common neurodegenerative disease. Although many drugs have been developed and introduced into the market to provide symptomatic treatment, there is still no cure for PD. Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) is a potent survival factor for injured nigrostriatal dopamine neurons and is currently being evaluated as a potential treatment for PD. Gene therapy allows localized, long-term and stable transgene expression aft

Abstract:

La protéine majeure du lactosérum, la β-lactoglobuline (βlg) est bien reconnue pour ses propriétés structurales intéressantes lui permettant d’établir des interactions avec des ligands de taille et de caractéristiques différentes. La riboflavine (RF) et la vitamine D3 (D3) ont été sélectionnées comme modèles de petits nutraceutiques amphiphiles et hydrophobes, respectivement, et le lysozyme (Lyso), comme ligand protéique de plus grande taille. La capacité de la βlg à lier la RF a été étudiée par des méthodes spectroscopiques. La βlg et la RF forment le complexe βlg-RF dont la photoactivation g
