Published in 2022 at "Advanced Healthcare Materials"

DOI: 10.1002/adhm.202202039

Abstract: Pharmacological targeting of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress represents one of important methods for disease therapy, which, however, is significantly suppressed by the ER homeostatic processe. Herein, a proof‐of‐concept strategy is reported for persistent stimulation of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.nanolett.1c01029

Abstract: Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) enables intracellular targeting by peptide assemblies, but how the ALP substrates enter cells remains elusive. Here we show that nanoscale phosphopeptide assemblies cluster ALP to enable caveolae-mediated endocytosis (CME) and endosomal escape.… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Journal of the American Chemical Society"

DOI: 10.1021/jacs.1c07923

Abstract: Tumorigenic risk of undifferentiated human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), being a major obstacle for clinical application of iPSCs, requires novel approaches for selectively eliminating undifferentiated iPSCs. Here, we show that an l-phosphopentapeptide, upon the… read more here.
