2011 marks the 50th anniversary of the publication of Angewandte Chemie International Edition

Happy Birthday Angewandte Chemie!

Protein Expression Leads to Metastasis
Correlation between protein expression and capacity of tumor cells to metastasize could lead to personalized cancer treatment

Diversity Without Protecting Groups
Mild, multicomponent reaction allows the introduction of four diversity points in one step, leading to benzoxazinone derivatives

Viral ZnO Nanoparticles
Binding ZnO nanoparticles to polyhedrosis virus suitable for biological applications such as surface display technologies

Elution Teases Proteins from Tissue
Competitive elution selectively pulls proteins from tissue and avoids false-positives

Phosphatidylserine – Novel Receptor
Phosphatidylserine lipid photoaffinity cross-linking probes synthesized for identification of novel receptors (discovery biology, anti-inflammatory therapeutics, cellular delivery)

Changing Bacteria from Warm- to Cold-Loving
Only a limited number of functions required to change the predilection of microorganisms for radically different environments

Analgesia, Less of a Pain
Analgesics without side-effects of conventional painkillers could emerge the discovery of the ion channel responsible for pain

Lipid Microspheres Deliver Toad Venom
Lipid microspheres are promising vehicles for intravenous delivery of bufadienolides from toad venom

Next Generation of Dendritic Nanocarriers
Maltose-decorated nanocarriers for next generation dendritic nanocarriers with specific targeting of destined tissue for therapeutic treatments
