Construction of Thermo-Responsive Elastin-Like Polypeptides (ELPs)-Aggregation-Induced-Emission (AIE) Conjugates for Temperature Sensing.

ABSTRACT: In this work, an aggregation-induced emission (AIE) molecule (tetraphenylethene derivative, TPE-COOH) was conjugated to elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs40) via an amide bond to form ELPs40-TPE. The successful synthesis of ELPs40-TPE was confirmed by Circular Dichroism spectroscopy, gel electrophoresis, UV-vis absorption, and fluorescence emission spectroscopy. ELPs40-TPE possessed both amphiphilicity and the features of an AIE, and the fluorescence intensity was dependent on the local temperature. The Hela cells imaging indicated that ELPs40-TPE has great potential for bio-imaging applications because of its advantages of high fluorescence intensity, good water-solubility, and remarkable biocompatibility.

Array-Based Protein Sensing Using an Aggregation-Induced Emission (AIE) Light-Up Probe.

Project description:Protein detection and identification are important for the diagnosis of diseases; however, the development of facile sensing probes still remains challenging. Here, we present an array-based "turn on" protein-sensing platform capable of detecting and identifying proteins using aggregation-induced emission luminogens (AIEgens). The water-soluble AIEgens in which fluorescence was initially turned off showed strong fluorescence in the presence of nanomolar concentrations of proteins via restriction of the intramolecular rotation of the AIEgens. The binding affinities between the AIEgens and proteins were associated with various chemical functional groups on AIEgens, resulting in distinct fluorescent-signal outcomes for each protein. The combined fluorescence outputs provided sufficient information to detect and discriminate proteins of interest by linear discriminant analysis. Furthermore, the array-based sensor enabled classification of different concentrations of specific proteins. These results provide novel insight into the use of the AIEgens as a new type of sensing probe in array-based systems.

Quantitative model of the phase behavior of recombinant pH-responsive elastin-like polypeptides.

Project description:Quantitative models are required to engineer biomaterials with environmentally responsive properties. With this goal in mind, we developed a model that describes the pH-dependent phase behavior of a class of stimulus responsive elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs) that undergo reversible phase separation in response to their solution environment. Under isothermal conditions, charged ELPs can undergo phase separation when their charge is neutralized. Optimization of this behavior has been challenging because the pH at which they phase separate, pHt, depends on their composition, molecular weight, concentration, and temperature. To address this problem, we developed a quantitative model to describe the phase behavior of charged ELPs that uses the Henderson-Hasselbalch relationship to describe the effect of side-chain ionization on the phase-transition temperature of an ELP. The model was validated with pH-responsive ELPs that contained either acidic (Glu) or basic (His) residues. The phase separation of both ELPs fit this model across a range of pH. These results have important implications for applications of pH-responsive ELPs because they provide a quantitative model for the rational design of pH-responsive polypeptides whose transition can be triggered at a specified pH.

Aggregation-Induced Emission (AIE) Polymeric Micelles for Imaging-Guided Photodynamic Cancer Therapy.

Project description:Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a noninvasive treatment for selectively killing malignant tumor cells. The photosensitizer is a necessary component of photodynamic nanomedicine. Many efforts have been made to develop new photosensitizers for efficient cancer photodynamic therapy. In this work, we report a novel nano photosensitizer, polymeric micelles (AIE-M) with aggregation induced emission characteristic, for photodynamic cancer therapy. AIE-M with sub-20 nm particle size is prepared by the self-assembly of salicylaldazine-incorporated amphiphilic polymer (AIE-1), which can produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) with light irradiation in solution. After uptake by cancer cells, AIE-M can specially sojourn in plasma membranes of cancer cells at the early stage and predominantly accumulate in the mitochondria of cancer cell at the late stage. The phototoxicity of AIE-M, resulting from the generation of intracellular ROS with light irradiation, can efficiently cause cancer cells death by apoptosis and necrosis. The advantages of AIE-M as a nano photosensitizer include the small size, highly colloidal stability in the process of preparation and storage, and high cell penetration. The ultra-low Critical Micelle Concentration (CMC) of AIE-1, negligible dark toxicity and super phototoxicity of AIE-M suggest its promising potential for image-guided PDT.

Combined aggregation induced emission (AIE), photochromism and photoresponsive wettability in simple dichloro-substituted triphenylethylene derivatives.

Project description:A dichloro-substituted triphenylethylene derivative (TrPECl2) with aggregation-induced emission (AIE), photochromism and photoresponsive wettability has been synthesized. The new compound shows fast-response photochromic behaviour with good ON/OFF repeatability by utilizing a proposed stilbene-type intramolecular photocyclization in the solid state. Compared with the more usual diphenylethylene derivatives, the photochromic properties of the triphenylethylene derivative are much more striking and easier to achieve. The triphenylethylene derivative also displays AIE properties leading to strong fluorescence in the solid state. Therefore, both the ultraviolet-visible absorption and fluorescence emission are drastically changed during the photochromic processes. Furthermore, the morphology of the TrPECl2 microcrystalline surface could be controlled by irradiation. The wettability of the surface could be drastically decreased with contact angles of a water droplet changing from 73° to 118°. The triphenylethylene derivative with a simple molecular structure is, therefore, attractive for multifunctional materials.

Photostable fluorescent organic dots with aggregation-induced emission (AIE dots) for noninvasive long-term cell tracing.

Project description:Long-term noninvasive cell tracing by fluorescent probes is of great importance to life science and biomedical engineering. For example, understanding genesis, development, invasion and metastasis of cancerous cells and monitoring tissue regeneration after stem cell transplantation require continual tracing of the biological processes by cytocompatible fluorescent probes over a long period of time. In this work, we successfully developed organic far-red/near-infrared dots with aggregation-induced emission (AIE dots) and demonstrated their utilities as long-term cell trackers. The high emission efficiency, large absorptivity, excellent biocompatibility, and strong photobleaching resistance of the AIE dots functionalized by cell penetrating peptides derived from transactivator of transcription proteins ensured outstanding long-term noninvasive in vitro and in vivo cell tracing. The organic AIE dots outperform their counterparts of inorganic quantum dots, opening a new avenue in the development of fluorescent probes for following biological processes such as carcinogenesis.

Triple-Columned and Multiple-Layered 3D Polymers: Design, Synthesis, Aggregation-Induced Emission (AIE), and Computational Study.

Project description:Conjugated polymers and oligomers have great potentials in various fields, especially in materials and biological sciences because of their intriguing electronic and optoelectronic properties. In recent years, the through-space conjugation system has emerged as a new assembled pattern of multidimensional polymers. Here, a novel series of structurally condensed multicolumn/multilayer 3D polymers and oligomers have been designed and synthesized through one-pot Suzuki polycondensation (SPC). The intramolecularly stacked arrangement of polymers can be supported by either X-ray structural analysis or computational analysis. In all cases, polymers were obtained with modest to good yields, as determined by GPC and 1H-NMR. MALDI-TOF analysis has proven the speculation of the step-growth process of this polymerization. The computational study of ab initio and DFT calculations based on trimer and pentamer models gives details of the structures and the electronic transition. Experimental results of optical and AIE research confirmed by calculation indicates that the present work would facilitate the research and applications in materials.

An arch-bridge-type fluorophore for bridging the gap between aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) and aggregation-induced emission (AIE).

Project description:Solution and solid dual photoluminescence (PL) molecules fill the substantial gap between ACQ and AIE molecules to explore the mechanism of molecular luminescence in greater detail and to facilitate practical applications. A unique arch-bridge-like thiazolo[5,4-b]thieno[3,2-e]pyridine moiety is obtained as a stator after the rigidification of rotor 1 by intramolecular H-bonding of ortho -OH or -NH2 to afford two classes of solid and solution dual PL molecules. As a typical example, DF5 is dual PL active. Moreover, the large Stokes shift with high dual PL efficiency (?F up to 51% in the solid state, 80% in DMF, 74% in DMSO, and 100% in water), together with the good thermal stability (Tm > 200 °C and T05 > 200 °C), make it more practical for promising optoelectronic and biological applications.

Multistimuli-Responsive Luminescence of Naphthalazine Based on Aggregation-Induced Emission.

Project description:Stimuli-responsive luminescent materials, which are dependent on changes in physical molecular packing modes, have attracted more and more interest over the past ten years. In this study, 2,2-dihydroxy-1,1-naphthalazine was synthesized and shown to exhibit different fluorescence emission in solution and solid states with characteristic aggregation-induced emission (AIE) properties. A remarkable change in the fluorescence of 2,2-dihydroxy-1,1-naphthalazine occurred upon mechanical grinding, heating, or exposure to solvents. According to the characterization by solid-state fluorescence spectroscopy, X-ray crystallography, differential scanning calorimetry, and X-ray powder diffraction, the fluorescence change could be attributed to transitions between two structurally different polymorphs. These significant properties could also give 2,2-dihydroxy-1,1-naphthalazine more potential applications as a multifunctional material.
