Duality of β-glucan microparticles: antigen carrier and immunostimulants [PDF]
Designing efficient recombinant mucosal vaccines against enteric diseases is still a major challenge. Mucosal delivery of recombinant vaccines requires encapsulation in potent immunostimulatory particles to induce an efficient immune response. This paper

Evaluation of Angiopoietins and Cell-Derived Microparticles after Stem Cell Transplantation [PDF]
Although stem cell transplantation (SCT) is being used for hematopoietic reconstitution following high-dose chemotherapy for malignancy, it involves certain serious transplant-related complications such as graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Angiopoietins play important roles in angiogenesis.

Microparticle alpha‐2‐macroglobulin enhances pro‐resolving responses and promotes survival in sepsis
Incorporation of locally produced signaling molecules into cell‐derived vesicles may serve as an endogenous mediator delivery system. We recently reported that levels alpha‐2‐macroglobulin (A2MG)‐containing microparticles are elevated in plasma from ...

A novel biodegradable polymer scaffold for in vitro growth of corneal epithelial cells
The shortage of donor corneal tissue worldwide has led to extensive research for alternate corneal equivalents utilizing tissue engineering methods. We conducted experiments using Poly D, L lactic acid polymer along with a copolymer (Eudragit) in varying

Accumulation of tissue factor in endothelial cells induces cell apoptosis, mediated through p38 and p53 activation [PDF]
We previously reported that high levels of tissue factor (TF) can induce cellular apoptosis in endothelial. In this study, TF-mediated mechanisms of induction of apoptosis were explored.
