Idiosyncratic adverse drug reactions are unpredictable, dose independent and potentially life threatening; this makes them a major factor contributing to the cost uncertainty of development. Clinical data suggest that many such involve immune mechanisms, genetic association studies have identified strong linkage between hypersensitivity several drugs specific HLA alleles. One strongest associations found has been for antiviral abacavir, which causes severe exclusively in patients expressing...

Exploring a rational delivery system of integrating chemotherapy with immunotherapy to broaden benefits cancer immunochemotherapy is still under challenge. Herein, we developed doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded biomimetic hybrid nanovesicles (DOX@LINV) via fusing artificial liposomes (LIPs) tumor-derived (TNVs) for combinational immunochemotherapy. DOX@LINV homologous targeting ability could deliver DOX tumor tissue and elicit an effective immunogenic cell death response improve the immunogenicity...

CdTe/CdS/ZnS corre-shell-shell (CSS) quantum dots (QDs) are synthesized in the aqueous phase assisted by microwave irradiation. As-prepared CSS QDs suitable novel fluorescent probes biological applications because of their outstanding dispersibility, good spectral properties, excellent photostability, and favorable biocompatibility.

Sensitive and selective detection for cancer biomarkers are critical in clinical diagnostics. Here we developed a microfluidic protein chip an ultrasensitive multiplexed assay of biomarkers. Aqueous-phase-synthesized CdTe/CdS quantum dots (aqQDs) were employed as fluorescent signal amplifiers to improve the sensitivity. Secondary antibodies (goat anti-mouse IgG) conjugated luminescent QDs realize versatile probe that could be used both sandwich reverse phase immunoassays. We found our not...

Abstract Increasing evidence suggests that depression may be associated with a lack of hippocampal neurogenesis. It is well established neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS)‐derived NO exerts negative control on the Using genetic and pharmacological methods, we investigated roles nNOS in induced by chronic mild stress (CMS) mice. Hippocampal over‐expression was first observed 4 days remained elevated 21 56 after exposure to CMS. The mice exposed CMS exhibited behavioral changes typical...

Water-dispersed nanocrystals with high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) and narrow size distribution are desirable for a variety of bioapplications. In this report, we present facile method assisted by microwave irradiation rapidly synthesizing high-quality CdTe in aqueous phase. The PLQY prepared very short time (15 min) reaches as 82%, the fwhm value is merely 27 nm meanwhile. Moreover, increased to remarkable 98% after further amelioration through illumination method. key synthesis...

Blocking immune checkpoints with monoclonal antibody has been verified to achieve potential clinical successes for cancer immunotherapy. However, its application impeded by the "cold" tumor microenvironment. Here, weak acidity-responsive nanoparticles co-loaded CRISPR/Cas9 and paclitaxel (PTX) ability convert into "hot" are reported. The exhibited high cargo packaging capacity, superior transfection efficiency, well biocompatibility, effective accumulation. encapsulated in could specifically...

The cytotoxicity of the natural ent-kaurene diterpenoid, oridonin, has been extensively studied. However, application oridonin for cancer therapy was hampered primarily by its moderate potency. In this study, a series A-ring modified analogues, and their derivatives bearing various substituents on 14-OH position, were designed, synthesized, evaluated anticancer efficacy. Some significantly more potent than against both drug-sensitive drug-resistant cells. most compound, 13p, 200-fold...

Understanding the mechanisms underlying phenotypic innovation is a key goal of comparative genomic studies. Here, we investigated evolutionary landscape lineage-specific accelerated regions (LinARs) across 49 primate species. Genomic comparison with dense taxa sampling species significantly improved LinAR detection accuracy and revealed many novel human LinARs associated brain development or disease. Our study also yielded detailed maps in other lineages that may have influenced adaptation....

ABSTRACT Chromosomally mediated penicillin resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae occurs part through alterations penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) and a decrease outer membrane permeability. However, the genetic molecular mechanisms of transformation penicillin-susceptible strain N. to high-level have not been clearly elucidated. Previous studies suggested that PBP 1 were involved resistance. In this study, we identified single amino acid mutation located 40 acids N terminal active-site...

ABSTRACT Neisseria gonorrhoeae becomes resistant to tetracycline by two major mechanisms: expression of a plasmid-encoded TetM protein and mutations in endogenous genes (chromosomally mediated resistance). Early studies Sparling colleagues (P. F. A. J. Sarubbi, E. Blackman, Bacteriol. 124:740-749, 1975) demonstrated that three were involved high-level chromosomally resistance (MIC ≥ 2 μg/ml): ery-2 (now referred as mtrR ), penB , tet-2 . While the identities first are known, gene has not...

SUMMARY Aims: Pioglitazone, known as a peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor γ (PPARγ) agonist, is used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). T2DM has been associated with reduced performance on numerous domains of cognitive function. Here, we investigated the effects pioglitazone memory impairment in mouse model defects insulin sensitivity and secretion, namely high‐fat diet (HFD) streptozotocin (STZ)‐induced diabetic mice. Methods: ICR mice were fed HFD for 4 weeks then injected...
