Abstract:

Cube-octameric silsesquioxanes (COSS) were investigated as modular scaffolds for the application in biomedical engineering and associated research areas. Chemical modification of these unique organic-inorganic hybrids endowed them with novel features, aimed at functional tailoring towards executing certain biologic tasks. The chemical and structural peculiarities of COSS nanoparticles were used to address two parallel issues, the first one being development of a viable route to peptide multimers, and the second one – elaboration of a molecular platform for efficient cellular transport.

Die Dissertationsarbeit behandelt die Erforschung von Silsesquioxan Gerüstmolekülen im Hinblick auf unterschiedliche biomedizinische Anwendungen. Durch die chemische Modifikation dieser einzigartigen organisch-anorganischen Hybridmoleküle konnten verschiedene biologische Effekte erzielt werden. Dabei wurden die chemischen und strukturellen Besonderheiten von Cube-octameric Silsesquioxanen (COSS) verwendet, um zwei Ziele zu erreichen: Erstens die Etablierung einer geeigneten Methode zur Multimerisierung von Peptiden und zweitens, die Entwicklung einer Plattformtechnologie für effizienten Wirkstofftransport.
