Laser-Assisted Microdissection
When analyzing alcohol's effects on the brain, researchers often want to look at small clusters of cells that can be studied in isolation from the surrounding brain tissue rather than at the entire brain or larger brain areas. This implies that relatively small numbers of cells have to be retrieved from the brain and studied in culture or subjected to biochemical analyses. The challenge then be...
متن کاملTargeting osteosarcoma vasculature with peptide obtained by phage display
AIM OF THE STUDY Tumour endothelial cells have been proven to have molecular markers distinct from normal endothelial cells. These specific molecular markers allow for targeting of the tumour vasculature with specific pharmacological vehicles to direct diagnostic or therapeutic modalities at the endothelial cells. By performing a phage display-based screening, this study aimed to identify a cer...
متن کاملImproved protocol for laser microdissection of human pancreatic islets from surgical specimens.
Laser microdissection (LMD) is a technique that allows the recovery of selected cells and tissues from minute amounts of parenchyma. The dissected cells can be used for a variety of investigations, such as transcriptomic or proteomic studies, DNA assessment or chromosomal analysis. An especially challenging application of LMD is transcriptome analysis, which, due to the lability of RNA, can be ...
متن کاملPuzzling Peptides from a Phage Display Library
The commercial availability of random peptide libraries displayed on the M13 phage is increasing their use forstudies on epitope identification, enzyme inhibitors, receptor ligands, etc. In this study two experimentswhere planned for selection of peptides. First with sheep antibodies, the positive selector was IgG, preparedon Protein G column from a pool of 11 sheeps immunized...
متن کاملHigh-affinity peptide-based collagen targeting using synthetic phage mimics: from phage display to dendrimer display.
Peptides derived from phage display typically show significantly weaker binding than their respective high affinity phage, which can bind to protein surfaces in a multivalent fashion. Here we show that mimicking key aspects of the multivalent architecture of the phage on an AB(5) dendritic wedge can enhance the affinity of a phage-display derived collagen binding peptide 100-fold (K(d) = 550 nM...
