Exploring the HYDRAtion method for loading siRNA on liposomes : the interplay between stability and biological activity in human undiluted ascites fluid [PDF]
Delivery of small interfering RNA (siRNA) is recently gaining tremendous attention for the treatment of ovarian cancer. The present study investigated the potential of different liposomal formulations composed of (2,3-dioleoyloxy-propyl)trimethylammonium

The necessity to transplant islet tissue without the need for immunosuppressant therapy has led to the development of materials for immune modulation. Pegylation makes islets antigenically silent, protecting them from the adsorption of foreign protein ...

An antibody that prevents serpin polymerisation acts by inducing a novel allosteric behavior [PDF]
Serpins are important regulators of proteolytic pathways with an antiprotease activity that involves a conformational transition from a metastable to a hyperstable state. Certain mutations permit the transition to occur in the absence of a protease; when

A Non-Covalent Antibody Complex for the Delivery of anti-cancer drugs [PDF]
Antibody drug conjugates (ADCs), which are obtained by coupling a potent cytotoxic agent to a monoclonal antibody (mAb), are traditionally bound in a random way to lysine or cysteine residues, with the final product's heterogeneity having an important ...

BF2-Azadipyrromethene Fluorophores for Intraoperative Vital Structure Identification
A series of mono- and bis-polyethylene glycol (PEG)-substituted BF2-azadipyrromethene fluorophores have been synthesized with emissions in the near-infrared region (700–800 nm) for the purpose of fluorescence guided intraoperative imaging; chiefly ureter

The Effect of Length and Structure of Attached Polyethylene Glycol Chain on Hydrodynamic Radius, and Separation of PEGylated Human Serum Albumin by Chromatography [PDF]
Purpose: This study focuses on the effect of length and structure of attached polyethylene glycol (PEG) chain on hydrodynamic radius (Rh ) and chromatographic retention of PEGylated protein. To this aim human serum albumin (HSA) as a standard protein was

Single-domain antibodies and their formatting to combat viral infections [PDF]
Since their discovery in the 1990s, single-domain antibodies (VHHs), also known as NanobodiesA (R), have changed the landscape of affinity reagents. The outstanding solubility, stability, and specificity of VHHs, as well as their small size, ease of ...
