Direct use of poly(amido)amine (PAMAM) dendrimers as drugs may be limited, due to uncertain (cyto)toxicity. Peripheral blood components, which constitute the first line of a contact with administered pharmaceuticals, may become vastly affected by PAMAM dendrimers. The aim of this study was to explore how PAMAMs' polycationicity might affect blood platelet activation and reactivity, and thus trigger various haemostatic events. We monitored blood platelet reactivity in rats with experimental diabetes upon a long-term administration of the unmodified PAMAM dendrimers. In parallel, the effects on blood flow in a systemic circulation was recorded intravitally in mice administered with PAMAM G2, G3 or G4. Compounding was the in vitro approach to monitor the impact of PAMAM dendrimers on blood platelet activation and reactivity and on selected haemostatic and protein conformation parameters. We demonstrated the activating effects of polycations on blood platelets. Some diversity of the revealed outcomes considerably depended on the used approach and the particular technique employed to monitor blood platelet function. We discovered undesirable impact of plain PAMAM dendrimers on primary haemostasis and their prothrombotic influence. We emphasize the need of a more profound verifying of all the promising findings collected for PAMAMs with the use of well-designed in vivo preclinical studies.

Acne is a chronic dermatological disease of pilosebaceous units existing in the form of hair follicles (HFs) and accompanying sebaceous glands. In topical acne treatment, localisation of drug substance at the target site, in pilosebaceous units, especially in HFs is essential. The aims of this study were to develop and optimise adapalene (ADA)-loaded PAMAM dendrimer-based nanocarriers for topical acne treatment and to prepare gel formulations of the selected nanocarriers and to characterise their rheological properties and spreadability.

Department of Chemistry and Center of Excellence for Innovation in Chemistry, Faculty of Science, Kasetsart University, Bangkok, Thailand.

In the present article, we describe the spectroscopic data of poly(amido)amine dendrimers generation 5.0 (G5 PAMAM) conjugated with LFC131 peptide at different specified reaction points. The raw data regarding the H NMR and mass spectra of G5 PAMAM dendrimers with and without LFC131 peptide conjugation and with or without FITC labelled are presented for comparison. Read More

Top Curr Chem (Cham) 2021 Mar 3;379(2):14. Epub 2021 Mar 3.

Department of Chemistry, City University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, China.

Clusteroluminescence is a phenomenon whereby the aggregation or clustering of non-conjugated electron-rich units leads to the emission of light at long wavelengths. This phenomenon was first discovered in poly(amido amine) (PAMAM) dendrimers. In recent years, clusteroluminescence has attracted growing research interest and its photophysical properties and mechanism have been thoroughly studied. Read More

It is crucial to emphasize the biomineralization therapeutic method to repair etched dentin in clinic. Non-collagenous proteins (NCPs) play critical role in the biomineralization of dentine. In this paper, we synthesized the phosphate-terminated polyamidoamine dendrimer (PAMAM-POH) by one-step modification successfully and examined by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and H-nuclear Magnetic Resonance (H-NMR) to characterize the structure of PAMAM-POH.
