제목 A “Light-up” 1D supramolecular nanorprobe for silver ions based on self-assembly of pyrene-labeled peptide amphiphiles: cell-imaging and antimicrobial activity
초록 Herein, peptide amphiphiles consisting of a hydrophobic alkyl chain (linear for 1 or branched type for 2) and hydrophilic histidine-containing peptide, which is known to detect specific metal ions, self-assembled into nanofibers (NFs) in water with a strong aggregation tendency. Particularly, by adopting pyrene as a fluorescent probe, the self-aggregate behavior was investigated based on different optical properties between 1 and 2. Furthermore, 1 shows light-off sensing signal to Cu2+ while 2 increases the fluorescence by capturing Ag+ in aqueous solution. Also, a considerable enhancement of fluorescence in Ag+-NF-loaded HeLa cells was observed. In addition, the NFs of 2 decorated with AgNFs are shown to possess highly effective and long-term antibacterial activity against both Gram-negative and –positive bacteria. This interesting interaction between Ag+ and 2 makes it possible for the biological application of cell-imaging and antimicrobial agents.
