Biological properties, therapeutic and diagnostic applications of Samarium and Samarium nanoparticles
Lanthanides are a family of elements, commonly known as rare earth elements. Metal samarium as one of the most important member of this family, which plays very important roles in the diagnosis and treatment of various diseases, especially cancer. Several lanthanide complexes, samarium in particular, have shown anticancer effects on tumor cells. This paper is tried to review the biological prop...
متن کاملNon-Viral Delivery and Therapeutic Application of Small Interfering RNAs
RNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful method used for gene expression regulation. The increasing knowledge about the molecular mechanism of this phenomenon creates new avenues for the application of the RNAi technology in the treatment of various human diseases. However, delivery of RNA interference mediators, small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), to target cells is a major hurdle. Effective and saf...
متن کاملSmall regulatory RNAs in Streptococcus pneumoniae: discovery and biological functions
Streptococcus pneumoniae is a prominent human pathogen responsible for many severe diseases and the leading cause of childhood mortality worldwide. The pneumococcus is remarkably adept at colonizing and infecting different niches in the human body, and its adaptation to dynamic host environment is a central aspect of its pathogenesis. In the last decade, increasing findings have evidenced small...
متن کاملDevelopment of Therapeutic-Grade Small Interfering RNAs by Chemical Engineering
Recent successes in clinical trials have provided important proof of concept that small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) indeed constitute a new promising class of therapeutics. Although great efforts are still needed to ensure efficient means of delivery in vivo, the siRNA molecule itself has been successfully engineered by chemical modification to meet initial challenges regarding specificity, stabi...
متن کاملBiological characteristics of Stem Cells from Human Exfoliated Deciduous Teeth (SHEDs) and its therapeutic applications in regenerative medicine
Stem cells isolated from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHEDs) are multipotent mesenchymal stem cells that are isolated from dental pulp tissues. These cells have a high proliferative capacity, multipotential ability, immunomodulatory function, and minimal risk of oncogenesis. Recent studies have shown that SHEDs are a feasible cell source for cell therapy and regenerative medicine.
