The protein corona formation in biological fluids challenges our understanding and exploitation of nanomaterials designed for sensing and nanomedicine. Over the past years, active research gas been focused on elucidating the driving forces on protein corona formation as well as its biological benefits and drawbacks. The consequences of bio-nano interactions are multifold as they may mask …
This proposal aims at the development of novel non-viral vectors for gene therapies for ocular diseases. It is nowadays well accepted that a number of blinding dystrophies is linked to aberrations in the retina and genetic disorders. In this framework, gene therapy has been identified as a favored candidate for such treatments since the eye is an easily accessible organ shielded from syst…
The investigations will be devoted to the influence of polymeric nanoparticles' morphology on the interaction and adsorption with plasma proteins. Initially, polymeric micelles and polymersomes will be produced from synthesized pH-responsive or biodegradable block copolymers made as PHPMAm-b-PDPAn, PEOm-b-PLAn and PAAm-b-PSn. The assemblies will be deeply characterized by using a variety …
A nanoclay is well known for its ability to impart barrier properties to polymer matrices, however there are few studies that demonstrate its potential as a compatibilizing agent. This study aims to investigate the behavior of nanoclay (montmorillonila Closite 20A) as coupling agent for the blend composed of low density polyethylene (PE) and polyamide 12 (PA), analyzing the rheological an…
This proposal is inserted in the activities embraced by the NanoPol project which has been approved in Europe and receives funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under the Marie SkBodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) Research and Innovation Staff Exchange (RISE) H2020-MSCA-RISE-2018 (Grant Agreement No 823883). The UFABC is one of the Partner Institutions …
The project aims to understand the relevance of the protein-corona on the cellular uptake of polymeric micelles and polymersomes. Block copolymer micelles and polymersomes will be produced form novel synthesized Cy7-conjugated PHPMA35-b-PDPA35 block copolymers. The presence of the fluorescent dye DBCO-Cyanine 7 (Cy7) chemically conjugated to the polymer chains will enable the evaluation o…
