DNA delivery to ‘ex vivo’ human liver segments [PDF]
Hydrodynamic injection is an efficient procedure for liver gene therapy in rodents but with limited efficacy in large animals, using an 'in vivo' adapted regional hydrodynamic gene delivery system. We study the ability of this procedure to mediate gene delivery in human liver segments obtained by surgical resection.

Glycosylation of glycolipids in cancer: basis for development of novel therapeutic approaches [PDF]
Altered networks of gene regulation underlie many pathologies, including cancer. There are several proteins in cancer cells that are turned either on or off, which dramatically alters the metabolism and the overall activity of the cell, with the complex ...

Human Calcitonin Delivery in Rats by Iontophoresis
Abstract In-vitro iontophoresis (0·33 mA cm−2) of calcitonin (50 μg mL−1, pH 4) was performed with the hairless rat skin model. Direct current was as potent as pulse current (2·5 kHz on/off 1/1) iontophoresis in promoting transdermal permeation of calcitonin. Increase in duration of current application from 20 min to 1 h did not increase

Delivery Properties of Human Social Networks [PDF]
The recently proposed packet switched network paradigm takes advantage of human social contacts to opportunistically create data paths over time. Our goal is to examine the effect of the human contact process on data delivery. We find that the contact occurrence distribution is highly uneven: contacts between a few node-pairs occur too frequently ...

Mobile video delivery via human movement [PDF]
This paper proposes VideoFountain, a novel service that deploys kiosks at popular venues to store and transmit digital media to users' personal devices using Wi-Fi access points, which may not have Internet connectivity. We leverage mobile users to deliver content to these kiosks.
