Ribonucleases and angiogenins from fish

, 2006
For the first time fish RNases have been isolated and characterized. Their functional and structural properties indicate that they belong to the RNase A superfamily (or tetrapod RNase superfamily), now more appropriately described as the vertebrate RNase

SURVEY AND SUMMARY The phylogenetic distribution of bacterial ribonucleases

, 2002
Ribonucleases play key, often essential, roles in cellular metabolism. Nineteen ribonuclease activ-ities, from 22 different proteins, have so far been described in bacteria, the majority of them from either Escherichia coli or Bacillus subtilis.

Cancer chemotherapy – ribonucleases to the rescue

, 2001
Ribonucleases, once dismissed as uninteresting digestive enzymes, have been shown to have remarkable biological activities. Onconase®, from the Northern leopard frog, is currently in clinical trials as a cancer chemotherapeutic.

Aptamer‐Based Delivery Systems for VEGF and NGF Modulation in Ocular Therapies

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Aptamer‐based delivery systems targeting NGF and VEGF hold significant potential for precise and sustained treatment of complex diseases affecting both the anterior and posterior segments of the eye. This review critically summarizes current strategies for NGF and VEGF delivery as well as VEGF sequestration, providing a clinical perspective on how ...

Tuning the Testicular Microenvironment for Enhancing Human Sertoli Cells Maturation and Functionality In Vitro

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
An in vitro testicular model is developed by generating connective tissue equivalents from human dermal fibroblast‐derived microtissues and coupling them with human Sertoli cells or human Sertoli cell spheroids. This engineered microenvironment supports Sertoli cell maturation and functionality, providing a promising platform for studying human ...

A study of the Intracellular Routing of Cytotoxic Ribonucleases

, 1995
Several ribonucleases serve as cytotoxic agents in host defense and in physiological cell death pathways. Although certain members of the pancreatic ribonuclease A superfamily can be toxic when applied to the outside of cells, they become thousands of ...

Construction of Highly Stable Cytotoxic Nuclear-Directed Ribonucleases

Molecules, 2018
Ribonucleases are proteins whose use is promising in anticancer therapy. We have previously constructed different human pancreatic ribonuclease variants that are selectively cytotoxic for tumor cells by introducing a nuclear localization signal into ...

Packed for Ossification: High‐Density Bioprinting of hPDC Spheroids in HAMA Toward Endochondral Ossification

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Human periosteum‐derived cell spheroids bioprinted at high density within a hyaluronic acid matrix promote fusion and hypertrophic cartilage formation in vitro. Early encapsulation enhances spheroid interaction and matrix maturation, generating scalable cartilage templates intended for endochondral bone regeneration.

Shellac‐Mediated Assembly of Nanoparticles for mRNA Delivery

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A shellac‐mediated nanoparticle assembly strategy is presented, involving the complexation of mRNA and low‐molecular‐weight cationic molecules (e.g., polyethyleneimine, chitosan, lipids, and poly‐l‐lysine), followed by capping with shellac. This nanoparticle platform enables mRNA transfection following intravenous injection and facilitates gene editing

Heavily and fully modified RNAs guide efficient SpyCas9-mediated genome editing

Nature Communications, 2018
Resistance of gRNA to ubiquitous ribonucleases is required for CRISPR-Cas9-based therapeutics. Here, the authors explore chemical modifications at all positions of the crRNA guide and tracrRNA cofactor, and identify modified versions that are more potent
