Detection Of DNA Damage By Use Of Escherichia Coli Carrying recA\u27::lux, uvrA\u27::lux, And alkA\u27::lux Reporter Plasmids [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Plasmids were constructed in which DNA damage-inducible promoters recA, uvrA, and alkA from Escherichia coli were fused to the Vibrio fischeri luxCDABE operon. Introduction of these plasmids into E. coli allowed the detection of a dose-dependent response

Hierarchical Targeting of TREM2+ Myeloid Cells via Acid‐Triggered OMVs Reprogram Immunosuppression and Suppress Osteolysis in Bone‐Metastatic TNBC

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study developed a hierarchical targeting nanoplatform, siTREM2@ETP‐PEOz‐OMVs, against triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC) bone metastasis. It precisely delivers therapeutic siTREM2 to monocytes/macrophages within the metastatic niche. This intervention dually regulates cell fate: reprogramming immunosuppressive macrophages and inhibiting ...

Deletion of luxI increases luminescence of Vibrio fischeri

open access: yesmBio
Bioluminescence in Vibrio fischeri is regulated by a quorum-dependent signaling system composed of LuxI and LuxR. LuxI generates N-3-oxohexanoyl homoserine lactone (3OC6-HSL), which triggers LuxR to activate transcription of the luxICDABEG operon ...

Optimized bioluminescence analysis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) released by platelets and its application in the high throughput screening of platelet inhibitors.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Activated platelets release adenosine trisphosphate (ATP) and bioluminescence analysis of ATP release is usually used to monitor activation of platelets induced by various stimulants. However, bioluminescence analysis of ATP possesses poor linearity, the

KIR2DL2/2DL3-E(35) alleles are functionally stronger than -Q(35) alleles. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
KIR2DL2 and KIR2DL3 segregate as alleles of a single locus in the centromeric motif of the killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) gene family. Although KIR2DL2/L3 polymorphism is known to be associated with many human diseases and is an important

Engineered Bacteria Factory Integrating Drug Delivery and Antibody Manufacture for Activating the STING Signal Pathway Mediated Tumor Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
To address the limitations of protein‐based ICIs in applications, this study constructed an engineered bacterium, HRB, capable of expressing aCD47 in hypoxic TME. Through the Schiff base reaction, responsive liposomes (LC) loaded with the STING agonist cGAMP were connected to the surface of bacteria to form HRB@LC.

Validating Bioluminescence Imaging as a High-Throughput, Quantitative Modality for Assessing Tumor Burden

open access: yesMolecular Imaging, 2004
Bioluminescence imaging (BLI) is a highly sensitive tool for visualizing tumors, neoplastic development, metastatic spread, and response to therapy. Although BLI has engendered much excitement due to its apparent simplicity and ease of implementation ...

Hijacking the Host Clock: A Nematode Effector Antagonizes Soybean Circadian Defense and Translation Control

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Soybean employs its circadian clock, governed by GmCCA1, to rhythmically defend against soybean cyst nematodes. The pathogen retaliates by secreting the effector Hg4E02, which hijacks the clock to suppress defense and co‐opt the host's translation machinery for nutrient acquisition.

Development of the nanobody display technology to target lentiviral vectors to antigen-presenting cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Lentiviral vectors (LVs) provide unique opportunities for the development of immunotherapeutic strategies, as they transduce a variety of cells in situ, including antigen-presenting cells (APCs). Engineering LVs to specifically transduce APCs is required
