The penetration of polar or badly soluble compounds through a cell membrane into live cells
requires mechanical support or chemical helpers. Cell‐penetrating peptides (CPPs) are very …

Monodisperse citrate-stabilized gold nanoparticles with a uniform quasi-spherical shape of
up to∼ 200 nm and a narrow size distribution were synthesized following a kinetically …

Development of nanotechnology has become prominent in many fields, such as medicine,
electronics, production of materials, and modern drugs. Nanomaterials and nanoparticles …

Functional nanomaterials have recently attracted strong interest from the biology community,
not only as potential drug delivery vehicles or diagnostic tools, but also as optical …

Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) were modified with glutathione (GSH) to form GSH-capped
GNPs, which have carboxyl groups on the surface of these nanoparticles. Then folic acid …

Gold nanoparticles were coated with a short peptide to promote intracellular delivery of
membrane-impermeable proteins. Through microscopy and enzyme assays, we …

This paper contributes to the debate on how nanosized objects negotiate membrane
barriers inside biological cells. The uptake of peptide-modified gold nanoparticles by HeLa …

Cell penetrating peptides facilitate efficient intracellular uptake of diverse materials ranging
from small contrast agents to larger proteins and nanoparticles. However, a significant …

The present work faces the rising demand of cationic particles of different sizes for biological
