Unraveling the complexity of amyloid polymorphism using gold nanoparticles and cryo-EM

Francesco Stellacci, Hilal Lashuel, Nadine Aït Bouziad, Paulo Henrique Jacob Silva, Anass Chiki, Zekiye Pelin Güven, Urszula Beata Cendrowska, Sophie Vieweg, Marie Mueller

Increasing evidence suggests that amyloid polymorphism gives rise to different strains of amyloids with distinct toxicities and pathology-spreading properties. Validating this hypothesis is challenging due to a lack of tools and methods that allow for the ...

Amphiphilic nanoparticle delivery enhances the anticancer efficacy of a TLR7 ligand via local immune activation

Francesco Stellacci, Ye Yang, Ahmet Bekdemir, Marie Mueller

Although immunotherapy shows great promise for the long-term control of cancer, many tumors still fail to respond to treatment. To improve the outcome, the delivery of immunostimulants to the lymph nodes draining the tumor, where the antitumor immune respo ...

Broad-spectrum non-toxic antiviral nanoparticles with a virucidal inhibition mechanism

Francesco Stellacci, Paulo Henrique Jacob Silva, Ahmet Bekdemir, Valeria Cagno, Emma-Rose Janecek, Samuel Thomas Jones, Marie Mueller

Viral infections kill millions yearly. Available antiviral drugs are virus-specific and active against a limited panel of human pathogens. There are broad-spectrum substances that prevent the first step of virus–cell interaction by mimicking heparan sulfat ...

Dynamic Cellular Uptake of Mixed-Monolayer Protected Nanoparticles

Francesco Stellacci, Randy Patrick Carney, Tamara Michael Carney, Marie Mueller

Nanoparticles (NPs) are gaining increasing attention for potential application in medicine; consequently, studying their interaction with cells is of central importance. We found that both ligand arrangement and composition on gold nanoparticles play a cru ...
