We present herein a pH-responsive dynamic DNA nanocluster based on gold nanoparticles with highly packed nucleic acid assembly and evaluate its potential as a drug delivery vehicle with tumor-specific accumulation. Each gold nanoparticle was readily functionalized with various functional DNA
OBJECTIVE
To compare therapeutic effects of neck clustered needling and medication on insomnia so as to search for a better method for treatment of insomnia.
METHODS
Seventy-six insomnia patients were randomly allocated to an acupuncture group and a medication group, 38 cases in each group. The
A principal goal of cancer nanomedicine is to deliver therapeutics effectively to cancer cells within solid tumors. However, there are a series of biological barriers that impede nanomedicine from reaching target cells. Here, we report a stimuli-responsive clustered nanoparticle to systematically
BACKGROUND
alpha-Lactalbumin (alpha-La) is a major cow's milk (CM) allergen responsible for allergic reactions in infants.
OBJECTIVE
We performed molecular, structural, and immunologic characterization of alpha-La.
METHODS
Recombinant alpha-lactalbumin (ralpha-La) was expressed in Escherichia coli,
Humans are daily exposed to background radiation and various sources of oxidative stress. My research has focused in the last 12 years on the effects of ionizing radiation on DNA, which is considered as the key target of radiation in the cell. Ionizing radiation and endogenous cellular oxidative
Background: A great number of therapeutic limitations, such as chemoresistance, high dosage, and long treatments, are still present in cancer therapy, and are often followed by side effects such as infections, which represent the primary cause of death among patients. Methods: We
In recent years, small nanoparticles (NPs) with diameter less than 10 nm have aroused considerable interests in biomedical applications. However, their intratumor performance, as well as the antitumor efficacy, has not been well understood due to their size-dependent pharmacokinetics, which presents
This study reports findings of an unusual cluster of mutations spanning 22 bp (base pairs) in a monoclonal antibody expression vector. It was identified by two orthogonal methods: mass spectrometry on expressed protein and next-generation sequencing (NGS) on the plasmid DNA. While the initial NGS
The clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas systems have rapidly transitioned from intriguing prokaryotic defense systems to an efficient therapeutic tool. This cutting-edge technology is currently revolutionizing to combat hostile viruses because of its reproducibility,
Clinical translation of therapeutic peptides, particularly those targeting intracellular protein-protein interactions (PPIs), has been hampered by their inefficacious cellular internalization in diseased tissue. Therapeutic peptides engineered into nanostructures with stable spatial architectures
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are ubiquitous regulators of gene expression that contribute to almost any cellular process. Methods for managing of miRNA activity are attracting increasing attention in relation to diverse experimental and therapeutic applications. DNA-encoded miRNA inhibitors expressed from
Premutation CGG repeat expansions (55-200 CGG repeats; preCGG) within the fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) gene cause fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS). Defects in neuronal morphology and migration have been described in a preCGG mouse model. Mouse preCGG hippocampal neurons
Shiga toxin (Stx) is a major virulence factor in infection with Stx-producing Escherichia coli (STEC). We developed a series of linear polymers of acrylamide, each with a different density of trisaccharide of globotriaosylceramide (Gb3), which is a receptor for Stx, and identified Gb3 polymers with
Because of its growing prevalence in Western countries, the metabolic syndrome, a common metabolic disorder that clusters a constellation of abnormalities, including central obesity, hypertension, dyslipidemia and insulin resistance, is emerging as one of the most important public health problems in
Gliomas are the most common intra-axial primary brain tumour; therefore, predicting glioma grade would influence therapeutic strategies. Although several methods based on single or multiple parameters from diagnostic images exist, a definitive method for pre-operatively determining glioma grade
