Message to Applicants: The research interests in Luo lab focus on the translational research in applying nanotechnology/nanomaterials for therapeutic delivery and immune modulations. Luo lab has developed a unique Telodendrimer (TD) nanoplatform for structure-based customized nanocarrier design for different therapeutic molecules, including small molecular drug, peptide, protein and gene molecules for optimal in vivo delivery. Further, TD nanoplatform can be implemented in nanogel and hydrogel resin or bulky hydrogl for both controlled release of therapeutics and immune modulation. TD hydrogel resin can effectively capture immune stimulating and mediating molecules based on the size selective effects and the ubiquitous affinity towards biomolecules. This TD resin can be applied in hemoperfusion to attenuate cytokine storm in sepsis and other critical illness
