Synthetic lipid nanoparticles targeting steroid organs.
UNLABELLED Lipidots are original nanoparticulate lipid delivery vectors for drugs and contrast agents made from materials generally regarded as safe. Here, we characterized the in vivo stability, biodistribution, and pharmacokinetics of lipidots. METHODS Lipidots 55 nm in diameter and coated with a phospholipid/poly(ethyleneglycol) surfactant shell were triply labeled with (3)H-cholesteryl-he...
متن کاملPaclitaxel-eluting biodegradable synthetic vascular prostheses: a step towards reduction of neointima formation?
BACKGROUND Clinical small-caliber vascular prostheses are unsatisfactory. Reasons for failure are early thrombosis and late intimal hyperplasia. We thus prepared biodegradable small-caliber vascular prostheses using electrospun polycaprolactone (PCL) with slow-releasing paclitaxel (PTX), an antiproliferative drug. METHODS AND RESULTS PCL solutions containing PTX were used to prepare nonwoven ...
متن کاملSynthetic Movies Synthetic Movies
The introduction of digital video to the personal computer has generated interest in the integration of image sequences into the user interface. Traditional means of representing an image sequence lack the manipulability desired, requiring that an alternative approach be taken. Previous work in the eld of computer graphics and videodisc applications suggest synthetic movies as the solution. A s...
متن کاملSelecting valid in vitro biocompatibility tests that predict the in vivo healing response of synthetic vascular prostheses.
We have investigated the usefulness of six in vitro biocompatibility tests in predicting the healing performance of polyester vascular prostheses as observed in previous canine in vivo trials. Vascular grafts were evaluated by using (i) a direct contact (DC) assay, (ii) an extract dilution (ED) assay on murine fibroblast cells, (iii) a DC assay on endothelial cells, (iv) a complement activation...
متن کاملSynthetic Animals in Synthetic Worlds
Abstract This paper provides an overview of various research e orts that aim at designing adaptive animats i e synthetic animals able to survive in synthetic worlds The control architectures of these animats are either programmed by a human designer or more or less automatically determined by means of nature mimicking processes such as learning evolution and develop ment The paper concludes wit...
