Development of novel materials for enrichment of glycopeptides is the key to a comprehensive analysis of the glycoproteome, which is closely related to several major diseases and biomarker findings. We synthesized phenylboronic acid (PBA) bound to SiO microspheres by a thiol-ene click chemistry method (this material was denoted as click PBA) and used it to separate cis-diol-containing molecules and enrich glycopeptides in hydrophilic interaction chromatography mode. Successful preparation of click PBA was confirmed by elemental analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, N adsorption-desorption isotherms, and high-resolution scanning electron microscopy. Click PBA showed stronger retention towards glycopeptides under alkaline, higher content of organic solution conditions than under acidic, higher content of organic solution or alkaline aqueous solution conditions. Click PBA exhibited high selectivity for both neutral and acidic glycopeptides, which could resist interference from 100 molar fold of bovine serum albumin digests. The high enrichment efficiency can be ascribed to the synergetic effects of affinity interaction and hydrophilic interaction. The application of click PBA to 1 μL human serum resulted in the identification of 101 unique glycosylation sites from 71 glycoproteins. Such material will facilitate comprehensive glycoproteome analysis.

Activating the ultralong room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) of mono-ring arylboronic acid remains a great challenge, because the capacious free spaces shaped by a rubbery polymeric matrix allow the benzene ring skeleton to freely rotate. Herein, the ultralong RTP in mono-ring arylboronic acid derivatives embedded in a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) matrix is activated, leveraging enhanced intermolecular and intramolecular hydrogen bonding and activating ultralong RTP. By incorporating diverse PBA derivatives into PVA via click chemistry, 3-aminophenylboronic acid (3A-PBA) doped PVA films showcase the most extended RTP lifetimes (2.

Owing to their incomplete digestion in the human body and inadequate removal by sewage treatment plants, antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) accumulate in water bodies, potentially affecting the exposed humans and aquatic organisms. Therefore, sensitive and reliable detection methods must be urgently developed for monitoring trace AEDs in environmental water samples. Herein, a novel phenylboronic acid-functionalized magnetic cyclodextrin microporous organic network (FeO@CD-MON-PBA) was designed and synthesized via the thiol-yne click post-modification strategy for selective and efficient magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) of trace AEDs from complex sample matrices through the specific B-N coordination, π-π, hydrogen bonding, electrostatic, and host-guest interactions.

Severe nephrotoxicity and infusion-related side effects pose significant obstacles to the clinical application of Amphotericin B (AmB) in life-threatening systemic fungal infections. In pursuit of a cost-effective and safe formulation, we have introduced multiple phenylboronic acid (PBA) moieties onto a linear dendritic telodendrimer (TD) scaffold, enabling effective AmB conjugation via boronate chemistry through a rapid, high yield, catalysis-free and dialysis-free "Click" drug loading process. Optimized AmB-TD prodrugs self-assemble into monodispersed micelles characterized by small particle sizes and neutral surface charges.

Peptide-Based Hydrogel Scaffold Facilitates Articular Cartilage Damage Repair.

ACS Appl Mater Interfaces

March 2024

Key Laboratory of Biomedical Materials and Implant Devices, Research Institute of Tsinghua University in Shenzhen, Shenzhen 518057, P. R. China.

Articular cartilage injury is a common disease in clinical medicine. Because of its special physiological structure and lack of blood, lymph, and nerves, its ability to regenerate once damaged is very limited. In this study, we designed and synthesized a series of self- and coassembled cartilage-inducing functional peptide molecules and constructed a coassembled functional peptide hydrogel based on phenylboronic acid--dihydroxy "click chemistry" cross-linking to promote aggregation and signal transduction of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in the early stage and differentiation toward cartilage, thereby promoting the repair of cartilage damage.

Bioaccumulation of therapeutic drugs by human gut bacteria.

Nature

September 2021

European Molecular Biology Laboratory, Heidelberg, Germany.

Bacteria in the gut can modulate the availability and efficacy of therapeutic drugs. However, the systematic mapping of the interactions between drugs and bacteria has only started recently and the main underlying mechanism proposed is the chemical transformation of drugs by microorganisms (biotransformation). Here we investigated the depletion of 15 structurally diverse drugs by 25 representative strains of gut bacteria.
