Clusterin, a haploinsufficient tumor suppressor gene in neuroblastomas [PDF]
This article is available open access through the publisher’s website. Copyright @ 2009 The Authors.Background - Clusterin expression in various types of human cancers may be higher or lower than in normal tissue, and clusterin may promote or inhibit ...

A DNA transfection system for generation of influenza A virus from eight plasmids.
We have developed an eight-plasmid DNA transfection system for the rescue of infectious influenza A virus from cloned cDNA. In this plasmid-based expression system, viral cDNA is inserted between the RNA polymerase I (pol I) promoter and terminator ...

Understanding In Vivo Fate of Nucleic Acid and Gene Medicines for the Rational Design of Drugs
Nucleic acid and genetic medicines are increasingly being developed, owing to their potential to treat a variety of intractable diseases. A comprehensive understanding of the in vivo fate of these agents is vital for the rational design, discovery, and ...

Haunted Bodies: Cell Switching, Getting Lost and Adaptive Geographies [PDF]
This article proposes the ideas of stochastic resonance and noise as devices with which to think of the body or self as plural and porous. Boundaries and surfaces are proposed as indefinite; cell switching and narratives of the self are discussed in ...

Tetraethylenepentamine-Coated β Cyclodextrin Nanoparticles for Dual DNA and siRNA Delivery
Nucleic acid reagents, including plasmid-encoded genes and small interfering RNA (siRNA), are promising tools for validating gene function and for the development of therapeutic agents.

Modeling genetic circuit behavior in transiently transfected mammalian cells [PDF]
Binning cells by plasmid copy number is a common practice for analyzing transient transfection data. In many kinetic models of transfected cells, protein production rates are assumed to be proportional to plasmid copy number.

Molecular Strings Significantly Improved the Gene Transfection Efficiency of Polycations.
High transfection efficiency and low cytotoxicity are the two key factors to be considered in the design of gene carriers. Herein, a novel and versatile gene carrier (PLL-RT) was prepared by introducing "molecular string" RT (i.e., p-toluylsulfonyl ...

New amphiphilic amino acid derivatives for efficient DNA transfection in vitro [PDF]
Nucleic acids-based therapies have recently developed as next-generationagents for treating and preventing viral infection, cancer, and genetic disorders,but their use is still limited due to its relatively poor delivery into targetedcells.
