Abstract Dendrimers are highly branched macromolecules with the potential to be used for biomedical applications. Several dendrimers toxic owing their positively charged surfaces. However, this toxicity can reduced by coating these peripheral cationic groups carbohydrate residues. In study, of three types 4th generation poly (propyleneimine) were investigated in vivo ; uncoated (PPI‐g4) dendrimers, and which 25% or 100% surface amino coated maltotriose (PPI‐g4‐25%m PPI‐g4‐100%m),...

Abstract Dendrimers provide many exciting opportunities for potential biomedical applications. However, owing to their positively charged surfaces, poly(propyleneimine) (PPI) dendrimers show toxic and haemolytic activities. One of the methods masking peripheral cationic groups is modify them using carbohydrate residues. In this study, three types fourth generation PPI dendrimers‐uncoated (PPI‐g4), approximately 35% maltotriose (Mal‐III)‐coated (PPI‐g4‐OS), 90% Mal‐III‐coated (PPI‐g4‐DS) were...

Oligosaccharide-modified poly(propylene imine) dendrimers are promising candidates as drug carriers and anti-prion agents. Here, we report the biodistribution of maltotriose-modified 4th generation (PPI) their ability to cross blood–brain–barrier that is important if these glycodendrimers considered potential therapeutic agents in central nervous system (CNS).

Dendrimers are highly branched macromolecules with the potential in biomedical applications. Due to positively charged surfaces, several dendrimers reveal toxicity. Coating peripheral cationic groups carbohydrate residues can reduce it. In this study, cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of three types 4th generation poly(propylene imine) were investigated. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) treated uncoated (PPI-g4) dendrimers, which approximately 40% or 90% amino coated maltotriose...

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common in Europe and North America. For many years scientists doctors have been working on introducing effective therapy into CLL as prognosis of survival time course disease differ among patients, which might pose a problem treating. Nanotechnology providing new insights diagnosis and, compared with conventional treatments, more efficient improve patients' comfort by decreasing side effects. Among various nanoparticles that are available,...

Although chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common adult in Western world, it remains incurable with conventional chemotherapeutic agents. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)‐related apoptosis‐inducing ligand (TRAIL) an antitumor candidate cancer therapy. This study examines proapoptotic effects of poly(propylene imine) (PPI) glycodendrimers modified maltotriose residues (PPI‐G4‐OS‐Mal‐III and PPI‐G4‐DS‐Mal‐III) on TNF family CLL cells. The combination understanding signaling pathways...

We have investigated how low intensity laser irradiation emitted by a multiwave-locked system (MLS M1) affects the viability and proliferation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) depending on parameters irradiation.Cells isolated surgically from femoral during surgery were identified flow cytometry cell differentiation assays. For irradiation, two wavelengths (808 905 nm) with following used: power density 195, 230, 318 mW/cm 2 , doses energy 3, 10, 20 J (energy 0.93-6.27 J/cm...

Published results of studies on poly(propylene imine) (PPI) dendrimers indicate their potential use in the treatment brain cancer or neurodegenerative diseases due to ability cross blood-brain barrier. However, depending dose, neurotoxicity may occur. Here, we discuss impact maltotriose modified PPI rat's nervous system. Wistar rats were treated intravenously for 14 consecutive days with densely (dense-shell; DS) and partly (open-shell; OS) at doses established as safe previous experiment...
