The influence of natural pulmonary surfactant on the efficacy of siRNA-loaded dextran nanogels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Aim: Topical administration of siRNA nanocarriers is a promising approach in the treatment of pulmonary disorders. Pulmonary surfactant, covering the entire alveolar surface of mammalian lungs, will be one of the first interfaces that siRNA nanocarriers ...

Cell Surface Thiol Engineering Mechanoregulates Myogenic Differentiation via the FAK–PI3K–AKT Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Schematic diagram illustrating how cell surface modification of skeletal muscle progenitor cells through TCEP treatment reveals enhanced cell adhesion, intracellular tension, and myogenesis at 19.66 kPa stiffness, leading to optimal cell fusion. In contrast, no significant changes are observed in the softer (10.61 kPa) or stiffer (49.4 kPa) matrices ...

The incorporation of dimethylaminoethanol and dimethylaminoisopropyl alcohol into Phormia regina phospholipids*

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1963
The effect of replacing dietary choline with dimethylaminoethanol and dimethylaminoisopropyl alcohol on the larval phospholipids of the blowfly Phormia regina was investigated. It was found that these compounds were incorporated into the phospholipids to

A Novel Brain Penetrable Nanocarrier Delivers Brain‐Derived Neurotrophic Factor to Treat Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A novel blood‐brain barrier‐penetrating terpolymer nanoparticle to deliver brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is designed. The BDNF‐TPN significantly enhances BDNF accumulation in the brain following intravenous injection, reduces apoptosis and neuroinflammation, thus promoting neuronal survival and ...

Shedding Light on the Cellular Uptake Mechanisms of Bioactive Glass Nanoparticles as Controlled Intracellular Delivery Platforms: A Review of the Recent Literature

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the main uptake pathways of bioactive glass nanoparticles (BGNs) and their intracellular localization, highlighting that BGNs are mainly internalized and entrapped within endosomes/lysosomes. Strategies for controlled intracellular ion release, with implications for targeted modulation of cell behavior, are discussed. The need to

Detailed study of Brazil nut (Bertholletia excelsa) oil micro-compounds : Phospholipids, tocopherols and sterols [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The oil of the Brazil nut (Bertholletia excelsa) was studied for its composition in fatty acids, tocopherols, sterols and phospholipids. The fatty acids composition of phospholipids was also studied.

3D Printing of Bacteriophage‐Loaded Hydrogels: Development of a Local and Long‐Lasting Delivery System

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This research investigates the feasibility of 3D‐printing of a bacteriophage‐containing hydrogel made of alginate and methylcellulose. The printed hydrogels steadily release active bacteriophages for up to 35 days which is beneficial to treat implant‐associated infections.

Lipid composition of hepatitis B virus surface antigen particles and the particle-producing human hepatoma cell lines.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1990
More than 90% of lipids of hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) particles produced by two human hepatoma cell lines (huGK-14 and PLC/PRF/5) were composed of phospholipids, with phosphatidylcholine being the dominant component, accounting for more ...
