Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTargeting Cellular Receptors as a Strategy for the Development of New Generation Mucosal VaccinesConstantine Bitsaktsis, Kari Wiedinger, Edmund Joseph GosselinMucosal pathogens are a primary source of infection that require the development of vaccines to induce a specific, protective and long lasting immune response. Despite an urgent need, development of effective mucosal immunization strategies has proven difficult. The literature was reviewed to elucidate cell specific targets that may be utilized to increase the immunogenicity of protective antigens through mucosal vaccination. … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 2 Feb 2013 · 7,026 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAAV-Based Targeting Gene TherapyWenfang Shi, Mingxia Yu, Qijun QianSince the first parvovirus serotype AAV2 was isolated from human and used as a vector for gene therapy application, there have been significant progresses in AAV vector development. AAV vectors have been extensively investigated in gene therapy for a broad application. AAV vectors have been considered as the first choice of vector due to efficient infectivity, stable expression and nonpathogenicity. … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,960 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRADIOSENSITIZATION OF CANCER STEM CELLS: TARGETING TGFβ, NOTCH OR TELOMERASE TO IMPROVE TUMOR RESPONSE O RADIOTHERAPYIgnacio Fernandez-GarciaRadiation resistant cancer stem cells are the main reason for treatment failure and tumor recurrence after cancer radiotherapy. Increasing biological evidences demonstrate that these cells possess the capacity to repair radiation induced DNA damage, protect themselves from radiation derived reactive oxygen species, survive and proliferate after several fractions of radiotherapy and finally, repopulate the heterogeneity of the tumor. Thus, targeting … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 16 Jul 2014 · 7,459 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSingle-Digit Inflation Targeting and Economic GrowthRichard AyisiIn recent times, most central banks have adopted inflation-targeting monetary policy approach aimed primarily to achieve single-digit inflation. Though, the literature suggest that low level of inflation promotes economic growth, the literature is silent on the threshold inflation level needed to promote growth. Studies in developing countries that seek to estimate the threshold level of inflation that promotes economic growth … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 4 Sep 2013 · 7,364 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEvaluation of Nested PCRs targeting the BI and SAG2 Genes For Detection of Toxoplasma gondii Genome in Aqueous Humor From HIV Positive Toxoplasma Retinochoroiditis Patients in a Tertiary Eye HospitalB. Mahalakshmi, K.L. Therese, R. Kirthika et al.Abstract: Problem statement: To evaluate nPCR targeting B1 gene (primer set 1) with 3 other nPCRs targeting B1 gene (primer set 2), 3' end of SAG2 and 5' end of SAG2 gene, for detection of Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) genome on AH from HIV positive TRC patients. Approach: DNA extracted from AH of 12 TRC patients and 12 controls (patients … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2010 · 6,886 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInternalizing Versus Non-internalizing Receptors for Targeting L-Methioninase to Cancer CellsXiao-Ping Zang, Naveen R. Palwai, J. T. Pento, Roger G. HarrisonWe reported previously that L-methioninase targeted to the urokinase receptor of MCF-7 breast cancer cells is significantly more effective in inhibiting cell proliferation and migration than free L-methioninase both in vitro and in vivo. L-methioninase was targeted by linking at its amino terminus to an amino-terminal fragment (ATF) of urokinase. The ATF was selected for targeting because is has previously … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 7,817 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleKinetic Optimization of Folic Acid Polymer Conjugates for Drug TargetingJacob M. Ngoy, Sunny E. Iyuke, Clarence S. Yah, Wilhelm E. NeuseProblem statement: Folic Acid (FA) is an essential, bioavailable water soluble B-complex vitamin that helps in the replication of normal cells. It is obtained from natural sources and it deficiency can leads to oncogenic cells development. Within this frame work in mind, we designed and synthesized a new bioconjugate carrier that can enhance the effectiveness of FA. Approach: The polymeric … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 13 Jun 2011 · 7,101 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCYCLIC CHOLECYSTOKININ ANALOGUES EXHIBIT HIGH BLOOD STABILITY AND BINDING AFFINITY WITH CHOLECYSTOKININ RECEPTOREun-Ha Joh, Jae Cheong Lim, Jin Joo Kim et al.Recently, incidence of Cholecystokinin (CCK) receptor is recognized as a factor that determines the aggressive phenotype of pancreatic cancer. In this study, a novel Cholecystokinin (CCK) analogues; DOTA-Nle-cyclo (Glu-Trp-Met-Asp-Phe-Lys-NH2) (DOTA-cCCK) and DOTA-Nle-cyclo (Glu-Trp-Nle-Asp-Phe-Lys-NH2) (DOTA-[Nle]-cCCK) were synthesized and radiolabeled and the targeting abilities on the CCK receptor were evaluated for new CCK receptor targeting agents searching. Peptides were prepared through a … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 2 Jan 2014 · 7,556 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHow Can the Public Monitor Monetary Policy?Takashi SendaOn August 11, 2000, the Bank of Japan made one of the most controversial decisions in the history of monetary policy when it ended its zero-interest-rate policy and increased the overnight rate to 0.25%. This paper aims to examine whether or not this decision to terminate the zero-interest-rate policy was premature. In this study, I argue that this decision by … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 6 Jul 2017 · 8,273 accessesView PDFCite
