Cell-Penetrating Peptides-Based Liposomal Delivery System Enhanced Immunogenicity of Peptide-Based Vaccine against Group A Streptococcus

open access: yesVaccines, 2021
Peptide-based vaccine development represents a highly promising strategy for preventing Group A Streptococcus (GAS) infection. However, these vaccines need to be administered with the help of a delivery system and/or immune adjuvant.

Thermophoretic migration of vesicles depends on mean temperature and head group chemistry

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Thermal gradients are shown to provide a robust and chemically specific driving force to liposomes. Here the authors show controlled direction of migration of unilamellar lipid vesicles by varying the temperature in the suspension and the exposed polar ...

Les liposomes : description, fabrication et applications [PDF]

open access: yesBiotechnologie, Agronomie, Société et Environnement, 2004
Liposomes: description, preparation and applications. Liposomes are spherical vesicles with a diameter ranging from 20 nm to a few thousands nm. These vesicles consist of one or several bilayers which separate an intravesicular from an external medium.

Naja naja oxiana Cobra Venom Cytotoxins CTI and CTII Disrupt Mitochondrial Membrane Integrity: Implications for Basic Three-Fingered Cytotoxins. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Cobra venom cytotoxins are basic three-fingered, amphipathic, non-enzymatic proteins that constitute a major fraction of cobra venom. While cytotoxins cause mitochondrial dysfunction in different cell types, the mechanisms by which cytotoxins bind to ...

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the
