 Project objective

The next generation therapeutic agents such as proteins, nucleotides, cytotoxic agents and molecular probes hold promising properties to solve many crucial health issues. However, efficient and selective transport of this therapeutic cargos and imaging probes into the right cells at the right moment stands as a fundamental limitation of these new technologies.

In this action we will develop a new generation of highly efficient, selective and biocompatible supramolecular vehicles for specific cell delivery. This strategy will consist in the implementation of dynamic bonds as linkers for glycoconjugated cell penetrating peptides. These peptide hybrids will be recognized very specifically carbohydrate receptors and internalized. These stimuli responsive dynamic bonds will assist in critical steps of the delivery process such as the cargo release and endosomal escape.

We will expand this strategy to incorporate glycopeptides conjugated into multifunctional nanoparticles through host-guest interactions. We will implement state of the art synthetic, biophysics and cell biology techniques to identify new supramolecular selective membrane transporters.

This action will combine the glycochemistry background of the applicant with the expertise in membrane transport of the host group. The potential discoveries will trigger new opportunities in the delivery of the next-generation probes and proteins (i.e. CRISPR).

Are you the coordinator (or a participant) of this project? Plaese send me more information about the "GLYCONANOPEP" project.

For instance: the website url (it has not provided by EU-opendata yet), the logo, a more detailed description of the project (in plain text as a rtf file or a word file), some pictures (as picture files, not embedded into any word file), twitter account, linkedin page, etc.

Send me an  email (fabio@fabiodisconzi.com) and I put them in your project's page as son as possible.

Thanks. And then put a link of this page into your project's website.
