This article presents data related to the research article "Fibroin particle-supported cationic lipid layers for highly efficient intracellular protein delivery" and focuses on the delivery efficiency aspects of the fibroin particle-cationic lipid complex (Fibroplex), including its fabrication and the intracellular delivery to the mouse skin tissue. We introduced a stable lipid-particle complex...

Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC) bacteria are opportunistic pathogens that can cause severe disease in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients and other immunocompromised individuals and are typically multidrug resistant. Here we observed that unlike other BCC species, most environmental and clinical Burkholderia vietnamiensis isolates were intrinsically susceptible to aminoglycosides but not to cation...

Cationic lipids-DNA complexes (lipoplexes) have been used for delivery of nucleic acids into cells in vitro and in vivo. Despite the fact that, over the last decade, significant progress in the understanding of the cellular pathways and mechanisms involved in lipoplexes-mediated gene transfection have been achieved, a convincing relationship between the structure of lipoplexes and their in vivo...

Nucleic acid-based therapy has become an increasingly important strategy for treating a variety of human diseases. In systemic therapy, a therapeutic gene must be delivered effi ciently to its target tissues without side effects. To deliver a therapeutic gene such as plasmid DNA (pDNA) or small interfering RNA (siRNA) to target tissues by systemic administration, cationic carriers such as catio...

Cationic palladium(II) complexes have been found to be highly reactive towards aromatic C-H activation of arylureas at room temperature. A commercially available catalyst [Pd(MeCN)4](BF4)2 or a nitrile-free cationic palladium(II) complex generated in situ from the reaction of Pd(OAc)2 and HBF4, effectively catalyzes C-H activation/cross-coupling reactions between aryl iodides, arylboronic acids...

Recent experimental studies have shown that the local b inding of circulating ant ibody with antigens existing or planted within the glomerulus can result in damage to this structure (1-6). In particular, chemically cationized proteins are able to bind to the glomerular basement membrane (GBM), act as a planted antigen, and induce in situ immune complex formation accompanied by marked proteinur...

The enantioselective cyclization was efficiently catalyzed by a cationic iridium complex coordinated with conventional chiral bisphosphine ligand to give benzofurans in high yields enantioselectivity.

Cellular binding of cationic nanoparticles in the presence of serum proteins was probed with two-colour fluorescence microscopy. Cationic nanoparticles associate with serum proteins in solution and bind to the cell surface as a single anionic complex. Displacement of serum proteins from the nanoparticles was found to be protein dependent.
