Resumen

In this Ph.D. dissertation, we have applied supramolecular strategies to promote intracellular delivery of diverse molecules and design potential thermoresponsive systems. Host-guest chemistry has been exploited to encapsulate and deliver different anionic probes such as pyranine, as well as anionic peptides with low self-delivery efficiency. Finally, we have designed potential thermoresponsive supramolecular materials based on self-assembling cyclic peptide nanotubes (SCPNs).
