The present article reviews the self-assembly of oligopeptides to form nanostructures, both in solution and in solid state. The solution structures of the peptides were examined using circular dichroism and dynamic light scattering. The solid state assembly was examined by adsorbing the peptides onto a mica surface and analyzing it using atomic force microscopy. The role of pH and salt concentration on the peptide self-assembly was also examined. Nanostructures within a size range of 3–10 nm were obtained under different conditions.

The role of polyphenols in the prevention of degenerative diseases is emerging in the last years. In this report, we will investigate in vitro the inhibitory effect of resveratrol on elastin amyloidogenesis. The effect of resveratrol on molecular structure was investigated by circular dichroism spectroscopy, while the inhibitory effect on self-assembly was evaluated by turbidimetry as a function of temperature and by atomic force microscopy.

The specific recognization between galactose group and Ricinus Communis Agglutinin (RCA) was investigated by microcantilever. The gold side of the microcantilever was covalently bound with N-galactose, RCA and asialofetuin (ASF) via mixed self assembly monolayer of 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid and 6-mercaptohexanol, respectively. After adding RCA into the flowing cell, the deflection could be observed on the N-galactose or ASF modified microcantilever. Meanwhile, the deflection could also be observed after ASF bound to the RCA modified microcantilever. In order to prove that the deflection is caused by the specific interaction between the galactose group and RCA, bovine serum albumin (BSA) was introduced into the flowing cell as control experiment and no obvious deflection was observed. The specific interaction was also confirmed by the evidence that the bound protein layer can be mechanically removed with atomic force microscopy nanolithography technology.
