A Biocompatible, Heparin-binding Polycation for the Controlled Delivery of Growth Factors
Cationic peptides participate in many critical events in the body. Their importance in gene regulation, host defense, and many other processes has made them ideal targets to synthetically mimic. Over the years, a multitude of polycations have been synthesized, but a synthetic polycation that is biocompatible has yet to be realized. We created a synthesis platform that has resulted in a syntheti...
متن کاملInduction of specific immune responses by polycation-based vaccines.
The s.c injection of tumor Ag-derived, MHC class I-binding peptides together with cationic poly-amino acids (e.g., poly-L-arginine; pR) has been shown to protect animals against a challenge with tumor cells expressing the respective peptide(s). Given our only restricted knowledge about immunogenic tumor-associated peptides, we sought to determine whether this pR-based vaccination protocol would...
متن کاملA Novel Biocompatible Nanoprobe Based on Lipoproteins for Breast Cancer Cell Imaging
Objective(s): Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of breast cancer provides valuable data on the disease state of patients. Biocompatible nanoprobes are expected to play a pivotal role in medical diagnosis in the future owing to their prominent advantages. The present study aimed to introduce a novel biocompatible nanoprobe based on lipoproteins for breast cancer cell imaging.<br...
متن کاملBiocompatible graphene oxide-based glucose biosensors.
This letter demonstrates that a novel, highly efficient enzyme electrode can be directly obtained using covalent attachment between carboxyl acid groups of graphene oxide sheets and amines of glucose oxidase. The resulting biosensor exhibits a broad linear range up to 28 mM x mm(-2) glucose with a sensitivity of 8.045 mA x cm(-2) x M(-1). The glucose oxidase-immobilized graphene oxide electrode...
متن کاملPolycation stabilization of graphene suspensions
Graphene is a leading contender for the next-generation electronic devices. We report a method to produce graphene membranes in the solution phase using polymeric imidazolium salts as a transferring medium. Graphene membranes were reduced from graphene oxides by hydrazine in the presence of the polyelectrolyte which is found to be a stable and homogeneous dispersion for the resulting graphene i...
