Page/Page column 9, (2020/01/24)
There is provided novel polypeptide-based carrier systems, which make it possible to label polymeric nanoparticles in the living organism. This enables new approaches in tumor diagnostics (high signal to background ratio) and radiotherapy (radiotherapy of solid tumors). The polypeptide-based carrier system comprises a polypept(o)idic comb (graft) copolymer, and one or more tetrazine bioorthogonal functional groups each linked to a diagnostic agent.
CONFORMATION SWITCHABLE ANTIMICROBIAL PEPTIDES AND METHODS OF USING THE SAME

Page/Page column 43; 44, (2018/08/20)
The disclosure provides a class of pH-sensitive, helix/random conformation switchable antimicrobial polypeptide (HRS-AMP) compositions as a single agent to selectively kill bacteria (e.g., H. pylori) under acidic condition in the stomach with diminished bacterial resistance compared to currently used antibiotics. Methods of treating bacterial infections in the stomach are also provided.
