Therapeutic Applications of Group I Intron-Based Trans-Splicing Ribozymes
Group I intron-based trans-splicing ribozyme specifically recognizes disease-specific RNA, removes the sequence downstream of the target site, and replaces it with a 3’-exon encoding a therapeutic/reporter RNA sequence, inducing therapeutic/reporter activity selectively in the target RNA-expressing cells.
Early Detection of Lung Cancer Volatile Organic Compound by Surface Enhancement Raman Spectra (SERS)
A biosensor based on SERS to detect lung cancer volatile organic compound (VOC) from exhaled breath.
Lipid-based Films for Biomedical Applications [Video]
Cecilia Leal from the University of Illinois and co-workers summarize the current research on lipid-based films for biomedical applications and provide new insight into multilayered hybrid lipid–polymer films for substrate-mediated drug delivery.
Precision Engineering of Targeted Nanocarriers
Nanocarriers can be precision-engineered to capitalize on what is known about receptor expression patterns, receptor clustering, and ultimately how interactions between a nanocarrier and target can be manipulated to achieve the most effective downstream signaling events.
