Modulation of 5-Aminolevulinic acid mediated photodynamic therapy induced cell death in a human lung adenocarcinoma cell line [PDF]
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a cancer treatment involving the administration of a photosensitising drug which selectively accumulates in tumor tissue, followed by irradiation with appropriate wavelength light.

DNA intercalation and cleavage of an antitumor antibiotic dynemicin that contains anthracycline and enediyne cores [PDF]
Dynemicin is a hybrid containing anthraquinone and enediyne cores, which contribute to binding and cleavage of DNA, respectively. DNA strand scission by the antitumor antibiotic is significantly enhanced by the addition of NADPH or thiol compounds.

Energetics and Mechanism of Drug Transport Mediated by the Lactococcal Multidrug Transporter LmrP [PDF]
The gene encoding the secondary multidrug transporter LmrP of Lactococcus lactis was heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli. The energetics and mechanism of drug extrusion mediated by LmrP were studied in membrane vesicles of E. coli. LmrP-mediated

HLA-G: expression in human keratinocytes in vitro and in human skin in vivo [PDF]
Classical, polymorphic major histocompatibility complex class I molecules are expressed on most nucleated cells.They present peptides at the cell surface and, thus, enable the immune system to scan peptides for their antigenicity.

Ethidium bromide binding to DNA cryogels
Abstract The interaction of the classical intercalator ethidium bromide (EtBr) with the double helical network strands of DNA cryogels was investigated. The cryogels were prepared starting from aqueous solutions of DNA (about 2000 base pairs long) at −18 °C using 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether crosslinker under various reaction conditions.
