Stem Cell Ophthalmology Treatment Study (SCOTS) for retinal and optic nerve diseases: a preliminary report

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2015
In this report, we present the results of a single patient with optic neuropathy treated within the Stem Cell Ophthalmology Treatment Study (SCOTS). SCOTS is an Institutional Review Board approved clinical trial and is the largest ophthalmology stem cell

Mimotopes for alloreactive and conventional T cells in a peptide-MHC display library. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2004
The use of peptide libraries for the identification and characterization of T cell antigen peptide epitopes and mimotopes has been hampered by the need to form complexes between the peptides and an appropriate MHC molecule in order to construct a ...

Sialic acid accelerates the electrophoretic velocity of injured dorsal root ganglion neurons

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2015
Peripheral nerve injury has been shown to result in ectopic spontaneous discharges on soma and injured sites of sensory neurons, thereby inducing neuropathic pain.

FragBuilder: an efficient Python library to setup quantum chemistry calculations on peptides models [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2014
We present a powerful Python library to quickly and efficiently generate realistic peptide model structures. The library makes it possible to quickly set up quantum mechanical calculations on model peptide structures. It is possible to manually specify a

Delayed hippocampal neuronal death in young gerbil following transient global cerebral ischemia is related to higher and longer-term expression of p63 in the ischemic hippocampus

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2015
The tumor suppressor p63 is one of p53 family members and plays a vital role as a regulator of neuronal apoptosis in the development of the nervous system. However, the role of p63 in mature neuronal death has not been addressed yet.

Low-frequency transcranial magnetic stimulation is beneficial for enhancing synaptic plasticity in the aging brain

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2015
In the aging brain, cognitive function gradually declines and causes a progressive reduction in the structural and functional plasticity of the hippocampus. Transcranial magnetic stimulation is an emerging and novel neurological and psychiatric tool used

Genetically Encoded Libraries of Constrained Peptides [PDF]

open access: yesChemBioChem, 2019
AbstractMany therapeutic peptides can still be improved with respect to target specificity, target affinity, resistance to peptidases/proteases, physical stability, and capacity to pass through membranes required for oral delivery. Several modifications can improve the peptides’ properties, in particular those that impose (a) conformational constraint ...

N-Propionylmannosamine stimulates axonal elongation in a murine model of sciatic nerve injury

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2015
Increasing evidence indicates that sialic acid plays an important role during nerve regeneration. Sialic acids can be modified in vitro as well as in vivo using metabolic oligosaccharide engineering of the N-acyl side chain.

Tumor-targeting peptides from combinatorial libraries [PDF]

open access: yesAdvanced Drug Delivery Reviews, 2017
Cancer is one of the major and leading causes of death worldwide. Two of the greatest challenges in fighting cancer are early detection and effective treatments with no or minimum side effects. Widespread use of targeted therapies and molecular imaging in clinics requires high affinity, tumor-specific agents as effective targeting vehicles to deliver ...
