The RGD peptides linked with azoAla at C terminal showed potent binding to the integrin on the surface of HeLa cells. Photoisomerization effect of the azobenzene side chain of synthesized peptides on the cell adhesion inhibition was further investigated. It was demonstrated that the cis form of azoAla linked RGD peptides revealed a little weak cell adhesion inhibition effect as compared with trans form of azoAla linked RGD peptide.展开更多
