Título da revista, periódico, livro ou evento: | Journal of Molecular Liquids | Volume: | 315 | Resumo: | The main bottleneck of glioblastoma still relies on the existence of the blood brain-blood brain tumor dual barrier, along with the lack of therapy specificity. The present work deals with the question of whether (and how) different targeting hyaluronic acid (HA)-peptide [c(RGDfK) and/or H7K(R2)2] moieties hierarchically interact with each other, to ensure a unique entity with specificity to glioblastoma. A dual experimental-computational approach, encompassing nuclear magnetic resonance and molecular dynamics simulations is enclosed. Relevant contact patterns based on the identification of the stabilizing/destabilizing noncovalent interactions within the constructs are detailed. The synthesis pathway requires the HA-c(RGDfK)-H7k(R2)2 association hierarchy, stemming from the size and amino acid residue rearrangement, in the 1:1 M ratio, to obtain a stable conjugate ultimately able to interact with the tumor cell membrane. To our knowledge, the structural and mechanistic rationale for the formation of hybrid polymer-peptide constructs, including HA-c(RGDfK)-H7k(R2)2, for glioblastoma has not been addressed so far. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/90813 | ISSN: | 01677322 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.molliq.2020.113774 | Direitos: | openAccess |
