    • Organic and Inorganic Nanoparticles for Prevention and Diagnosis of Gastric Cancer 
      Oyarzún Ampuero, Felipe; Guerrero Hernández, Ariel; Hassan López, Natalia; Morales Valenzuela, Javier; Bollo Dragnic, Soledad; Corvalán Rodríguez, Alejandro; Quest, Andrew F. G.; Kogan Bocian, Marcelo (Bentham, 2015)
      Organic and inorganic nanoparticles show great potential for cancer diagnosis and treatment. Because gastric cancer (GC) represents the second most deadly type of neoplasia worldwide, continued research efforts by scientists ...
    • Peptide multifunctionalized gold nanorods decrease toxicity of beta-amyloid peptide in a Caenorhabditis ... 
      Morales Zavala, Francisco; Arriagada, Hector; Hassan, Natalia; Velasco, Carolina; Riveros Salvatierra, Ana; Álvarez, Alejandra R.; Minniti, Alicia N.; Rojas Silva, Ximena; Munoz, Luis L.; Vásquez Salfate, Rodrigo; Rodríguez, Katherine; Sánchez Navarro, Macarena; Giralt, Ernest; Araya, Eyleen; Aldunate, Rebeca; Kogan Bocian, Marcelo (Elsevier, 2017)
      The properties of nanometric materials make nanotechnology a promising platform for tackling problems of contemporary medicine. In this work, gold nanorods were synthetized and stabilized with polyethylene glycols and ...
    • Peptides and metallic nanoparticles for biomedical applications 
      Kogan Bocian, Marcelo; Olmedo, Ivonne; Hosta, Leticia; Guerrero, Ariel; Cruz, Luis; Albericio, Fernando (2007)
      In this review, we describe the contribution of peptides to the biomedical applications of metallic nanoparticles. We also discuss strategies for the preparation of peptide-nanoparticle conjugates and the synthesis of the ...
    • Peptides and proteins used to enhance gold nanoparticle delivery to the brain: preclinical approaches 
      Velasco Aguirre, Carolina; Morales, Francisco; Gallardo Toledo, Eduardo; Guerrero, Simón; Giralt, Ernest; Araya, Eyleen; Kogan Bocian, Marcelo (Dove Medical Press, 2015)
      An exciting and emerging field in nanomedicine involves the use of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) in the preclinical development of new strategies for the treatment and diagnosis of brain-related diseases such as neurodegeneration ...
    • Rational design, synthesis and evaluation of γ-CD-containing cross-linked polyvinyl alcohol hydrogel as a ... 
      Marican, Adolfo; Avila-Salas, Fabián; Valdés, Oscar; Wehinger, Sergio; Villaseñor, Jorge; Fuentealba, Natalia; Arenas-Salinas, Mauricio; Argandoña, Yerko; Carrasco-Sánchez, Verónica; Durán-Lara, Esteban F. (MDPI AG, 2018)
      © 2018 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. This study describes the in-silico rational design, synthesis and evaluation of cross-linked polyvinyl alcohol hydrogels containing γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CDHSAs) as ...
    • Study of different chitosan/sodium carboxymethyl cellulose proportions in the development of polyelectrolyte ... 
      Guarnizo Herrero, Víctor; Torrado Salmeron, Carlos; Torres Pabón, Norma; Torrado Durán, Guillermo; Morales, Javier; Torrado-Santiago, Santiago (MDPI, 2021)
      This study investigated the combination of different proportions of cationic chitosan and anionic carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) for the development of polyelectrolyte complexes to be used as a carrier in a sustained-release ...
    • The advantages of polymeric hydrogels in calcineurin inhibitor delivery 
      Sandoval Yánez, Claudia; Escobar, Leslie; Amador, Cristian A. (MDPI, 2020)
      In recent years, polymeric hydrogels (PolyHy) have been extensively explored for their applications in biomedicine as biosensors, in tissue engineering, diagnostic processes, and drug release. The physical and chemical ...
    • Towards autotrophic tissue engineering: Photosynthetic gene therapy for regeneration 
      Chávez, Myra Noemi; Schenck, Thilo Ludwig; Hopfner, Ursula; Centeno-Cerdas, Carolina; Somlai-Schweiger, Ian; Schwarz, Christian; Machens, Hans Günther; Heikenwalder, Mathias; Bono Merino, María Rosa; Allende Connelly, Miguel; Nickelsen, Jörg; Egaña, José Tomás (Elsevier Ltd, 2016)
      © 2015 Elsevier Ltd. The use of artificial tissues in regenerative medicine is limited due to hypoxia. As a strategy to overcome this drawback, we have shown that photosynthetic biomaterials can produce and provide oxygen ...
