About Ming-Hsin:

Project 1: Dendrimer-based multivalent methotrexates as bi-functional therapeutics

Folate binding protein (FBP)-targeted nanodevice has been widely studied to treat site-specifically on tumor cells and tissues for decades, already showing therapeutic efficacy in vitro and in vivo. Based on this rational design, we covalently conjugated methotrexate (MTX), a weakly binding ligand of FBP, onto poly(amidoamine) generation 5 (PAMAM G5) dendrimer to construct a potential targeting polymer therapeutic. To demonstrate binding affinity of the MTX-nanoconjugate to FBP and multivalency-enhanced avidity, a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor was applied to measure for this system. According to results of SPR, the multivalent MTX-coupled PAMAM dendrimer showed enhanced avidity to immobilized FBP. We also conducted cell based experiments to test the biological activity of this nanodevice. The MTX-presented PAMAM dendrimer was able to cause cytotoxicty in FBP-overexpressed cells.

Project 2: engineering synthetic mimics of DNA-protein recognition systems

Recognition of protein on specific DNA segment initiates subsequent gene expressions and launches diversely enormous biological reactions. This accurate recognition process is believed that a preceding non-specific searching, mainly electrostatic interaction, facilitates the followed specific targeting.  In this study we intend to engineer surface charge on PAMAM dendrimer, to mimic DNA-binding protein and simulate its behavior on DNA segments. By using single molecule detection technique, we are able to visualize the process in real-time.

About Asish Misra: During his research rotation in MNIMBS, Asish Misra' reseach was focused on macrophages that have been implicated in many disease processes, from synovial inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis to angiogenesis in tumors. The macrophages in these pathophysiologies often overexpress particular receptors that can be exploited to deliver therapeutics exclusively to these cells. In particular, we are studying the folate receptor and mannose receptors as potential targets.
