The hypothesis that an elevated plasma insulin level contributes to an increase in coronary heart disease has led to studies of the mitogenic effect of native insulin and its conjugates on smooth muscle cells (SMC). In this study, insulin was covalently attached to two water-soluble polymers contain

## Abstract In order to study the effect of side‐chain length on the conformation of polypeptides, conformational changes of various ionic polypeptides with various lengths of side chain, poly‐__N__^ε^‐glutaryl‐L‐lysine (PGL), poly‐__N__^δ^‐glutaryl‐L‐ornithine (PGO), poly‐__N__^ε^‐succinyl‐L‐lysin
## Abstract The circular dichroism (CD) spectrum of poly‐L‐lysine and poly‐L‐glutamic acid has been investigated in the presence of a small percent of side‐chain blocking groups. The blocking groups benzyl, methyl, and carbobenzoxy show qualitatively similar effects. Less than five mole percent of
A series of copolymers were prepared containing 1,2:3,4-di-O-isopropylidene-6-O-methacryloyl-cr-~galactopyranose (0 to 99 mol %), methacryoyltyrosinamide and N-(2-hydroxypropy1)methacrylamide (99 to 0 mol %). The effect of galactose content on interaction with hepatoma cells in vitro was studied. In
## Abstract Copolymers of monomers containing donor (carbazole) and acceptor (dansyl) fluorophores with __N__‐(2‐hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide (HPMA) with “low” and “high” contents of the fluorophores were prepared. At any given fluorophore concentration, the efficiency of nonradiative energy transf
The metal-complexing properties of five different polyaziridines-poly[I-(2-aminoethyl)aziridine], poly( 1-acetylaziridine), poly[ 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)aziridine], poly[l-(2-hy-droxyethy1)aziridine-co-1-acetylaziridine], and poly[ 1-(2-aminoethyl)aziridine] oxine-were investigated in an aqueous solution
