Cysteamine inhibits lysosomal oxidation of low density lipoprotein in human macrophages and reduces atherosclerosis in mice [PDF]
Background and aims: We have shown previously that low density lipoprotein (LDL) aggregated by vortexing is internalised by macrophages and oxidised by iron in lysosomes to form the advanced lipid/protein oxidation product ceroid.

Strong Plasmon–Exciton Coupling Tuned by Corner Etching of Gold Nanocubes and Nanotriangles
Systematic etching of gold nanocubes (AuNCs) and nanotriangles (AuNTs) reveals how nanoparticle morphology governs plasmon–exciton strong coupling. While rounding the corners of AuNCs weakens their coupling, triangular geometries robustly preserve deep strong coupling.

A Nanoparticle‐Integrated Complete Manufacturing Pipeline of Chemically Engineered Exosomes
We report a novel manufacture technology of chemically engineered exosomes. The four steps of manufacturing, i.e., biogenesis, loading, isolation, and storage, are integrated by the use of a nanoparticle. The manufacture technology incorporates three innovative components, i.e., a new nano‐bio effect, a new composite nanoparticle, and a new isolation ...

Daunorubicin and gambogic acid co-loaded cysteamine-CdTe quantum dots minimizing the multidrug resistance of lymphoma in vitro and in vivo [PDF]
To minimize the side effects and the multidrug resistance (MDR) arising from daunorubicin (DNR) treatment of malignant lymphoma, a chemotherapy formulation of cysteamine-modified cadmium tellurium (Cys-CdTe) quantum dots coloaded with DNR and gambogic ...

Low density lipoprotein oxidation by ferritin at lysosomal pH [PDF]
Oxidation of low density lipoprotein (LDL) has been proposed to be involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. We have previously shown that LDL can be oxidised by iron in lysosomes.

Trinuclear Heptamethine Dyes for Shortwave Infrared In Vivo Imaging
The reactivity of cyclopentenyl‐bridged polymethine dyes is leveraged to synthesize shortwave infrared (SWIR)‐emissive di‐ and trinuclear polymethine dyes. Chromenylium‐ and flavylium‐based trinuclear dyes demonstrate increased nucleophilic stability, minimal aggregation in micelle formulations, and notable lymph node accumulation.

Characterisation and functionalisation of mechanically fractured graphene nanoribbons : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Nanoscience at Massey University, Manawatū, New Zealand [PDF]
Graphene has been heralded as the supermaterial of the future, boasting incredibly high electron mobility, thermal conductivity, and physical strength – all contained within the world’s first true 2D material, only a single atom thick.

We report an electrochemical biosensor that employs biopanning‐derived affinity peptides as selective receptors on a multifunctional chitosan–zwitterionic–gold nanoparticle (CS–ZI–AuNPs) nanohydrogel interface. The CS–ZI–AuNPs nanohydrogel exhibits antifouling properties, abundant sites for stable peptide immobilization, and efficient electrochemical ...

The specificity of cysteamine oxygenase
Oxidation of cysteamine to hypotaurine is catalyzed by cysteamine oxygenase (EC 1.13.11.19), a non-heme iron enzyme of large distribution [l-3] . A similar oxidation of cysteine to cysteine sulfinic acid has been reported to require a different oxygenase [4,.5]. Specificity of cysteamine oxygenase has been studied earlier in this laboratory by assaying
