Polymeric nanoparticles represent promising drug (gene) delivery carriers to the brain due to their unique advantages to facilitate the penetration of blood–brain barrier and endocytosis of neuronal cells in neurodegenerative diseases. ABSTRACT In spite of great advances in modern medicine, there are a few effective strategies for the treatment of ...

Trihexyphenidyl rescues the deficit in dopamine neurotransmission in a mouse model of DYT1 dystonia
Trihexyphenidyl, a nonselective muscarinic receptor antagonist, is the small molecule drug of choice for the treatment of DYT1 dystonia, but it is poorly tolerated due to significant side effects.

Bacterial purine metabolism modulates C. elegans development and stress tolerance via DAF‐16
To investigate the impact of dietary components on animal growth, an Escherichia coli single‐gene deletion library was screened using the Caenorhabditis elegans growth model. Thirty‐four E. coli mutants were identified to delay worm development. Notably, E.

The quest for the best target genes for RNAi‐mediated pest control
A major challenge for RNAi mediated pest control is the identification of the most effective RNAi target genes from the pool of ~37% of all genes that are essential. Effective RNAi target genes are predominantly highly conserved genes serving basic cellular functions such as protein degradation.
