Modular Synthesis of Amphiphilic Janus Glycodendrimers and Their Self-Assembly into Glycodendrimersomes and Other Complex Architectures with Bioactivity to Biomedically Relevant Lectins
Virgil Percec,Pawaret Leowanawat,Hao-Jan Sun,Oleg V. Kulikov,Christopher D. Nusbaum,Tam Tran,Annabelle Bertin,Daniela A. Wilson,Mihai Peterca,Shaodong Zhang,Neha P. Kamat,Kevin B. Vargo,Diana Moock,Eric D. Johnston,Daniel A. Hammer,Darrin J. Pochan,Yingchao Chen,Yoann M. Chabre,Tze Chieh Shiao,Milan Bergeron-Brlek,Sabine André,René Roy,Hans J. Gabius,Paul A. Heiney +23 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrated the candidacy of glycodendrimersomes as new mimics of biological membranes with programmable glycan ligand presentations, as supramolecular lectin blockers, vaccines, and targeted delivery devices.

Self-assembly of amphiphilic Janus dendrimers into uniform onion-like dendrimersomes with predictable size and number of bilayers.
Shaodong Zhang,Hao-Jan Sun,Andrew D. Hughes,Ralph-Olivier Moussodia,Annabelle Bertin,Yingchao Chen,Darrin J. Pochan,Paul A. Heiney,Michael L. Klein,Virgil Percec +9 more
TL;DR: Six amphiphilic Janus dendrimer primary structures self-assemble into uniform onion-like vesicles, which provide mimics of double-bilayer and multibilayer biological membranes with dimensions and number of bilayers predicted by the Janus compound concentration in water.

Rheology of peptide‐ and protein‐based physical hydrogels: Are everyday measurements just scratching the surface?
Sameer Sathaye,A. Mbi,Cem Sonmez,Yingchao Chen,Daniel L. Blair,Joel P. Schneider,Darrin J. Pochan +6 more
TL;DR: Solid injectable hydrogels, which are commonly referred to as 'shear-thinning and rehealing' materials, hold exciting promise for biomedical applications that require well-defined morphological and mechanical properties after delivery to a desired site through a shearing process.
"Single-single" amphiphilic janus dendrimers self-assemble into uniform dendrimersomes with predictable size.
Shaodong Zhang,Hao-Jan Sun,Andrew D. Hughes,Bogdan Draghici,Janis Lejnieks,Pawaret Leowanawat,Annabelle Bertin,Lidiannie Otero De Leon,Oleg V. Kulikov,Yingchao Chen,Darrin J. Pochan,Paul A. Heiney,Virgil Percec +12 more
TL;DR: An accelerated modular synthesis of six libraries containing 29 amphiphilic Janus dendrimers, employed to discover and predict functions via primary structures, is reported, suggesting the synthesis of Library 6 containing two simpler constitutional isomeric benzyl ester based amphiphiles that self-assemble in water into soft d endrimersomes and multidendrimerome dend rimersomes with predictable dimensions.
