Delivering schizophrenia-associated MicroRNA137 to the prefrontal cortex by lipid nanoparticles [PDF]
Schizophrenia (SCZ) is a complex neuropsychiatric disorder thought to arise from an interplay of environmental and genetic risk factors. The presentation of disease symptomology is heterogenous due to the polygenicity of the disorder.

Incorporation of phosphatidylserine improves efficiency of lipid based gene delivery systems [PDF]
The essential homeostatic process of dead cell clearance (efferocytosis) is used by viruses in an act of apoptotic mimicry. Among others, virions leverage phosphatidylserine (PS) as an essential "eat me" signal in viral envelopes to increase their ...
