Development of a secreted cell-permeable NF-κB inhibitor to control inflammation

, 2010
PhDRheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune chronic inflammatory disease, of unknown aetiology. Several disease-modulating approaches have been developed in the past years, however these are expensive, usually accompanied by unwanted side-effects ...

Investigating the roles of the alternative Isoforms of the preTCR alpha (pTα) chain in T cell development

, 2010
PhDThe pre-T cell receptor (preTCR) is required for αβ T cell development and hence efficient adaptive immunity. Composed of a rearranged TCRβ chain paired with the invariant preTCR α chain (pTα), it drives immature thymocytes through the “β-selection ...

Affinity‐Tuned Albumin Hitchhiking Extends the Bioorthogonal Capture Window in Pretargeting Radiotheranostics

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Pharmacokinetic engineering of clickable radioligands was achieved via albumin hitchhiking approach within a pretargeted radiotheranostics delivery platform. This approach reduced rapid renal elimination, expanded bioorthogonal capture window, boosted tumor uptake by ∼3.5‐fold, and improved the tumor‐to‐liver ratio by ∼6‐fold.

Plasmonic Enhancement of Fluorescence and Protein Dynamics in Living Mammalian Cells

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates plasmonic enhancement of the function of fluorescent voltage sensing proteins (genetically encoded voltage indicators, (GEVIs), QuasAr6) in live mammalian cells. Coupling to plasmonic nanoparticles does not just increase fluorescence, but influences the protein photocycle, creating a hybrid sensor with its response speed to ...

Electrically Readable Lateral Flow Assay Using Organic Transistors for Diagnostic Applications

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Electrolyte‐gated organic field‐effect transistors (EGOFETs) are integrated with lateral flow (LF) paper fluidics to create a reusable, portable, and low‐cost point‐of‐care (PoC) diagnostic test. The devices are validated for Human Immunoglobulin G detection, achieving high sensitivity (0.1 fm), selectivity, and reproducibility with rapid results in 20–
