Lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation in monocytes/macrophages is blocked by liposomal delivery of Gi-protein inhibitor
Background Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is widely recognized as a potent activator of monocytes/macrophages, and its effects include an altered production of key mediators, such as inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. The involvement of Gi protein in mediating LPS effects has been demonstrated in murine macrophages and various cell types of human origin. Purpose The aim of the present work was ...
متن کاملLiposomal Delivery of Demineralized Dentin Matrix for Dental Tissue Regeneration.
Current dental restorations have short longevity, and consequently, there is a need for novel tissue engineering strategies that aim to regenerate the dentin-pulp complex. Dentin matrix contains a myriad of bioactive growth factors and extracellular matrix proteins associated with the recruitment, proliferation, and differentiation of dental pulp progenitor cells. In this study, we show that de...
متن کاملOptically-controlled Selective Transfection of Partile Sensor Using Multilayered Liposome Containing Photochromic Chemical into a Cell Nucleus
We developed selective transfection of single particle sensor into a specific cell by optically controlled cell immobilization and membrane fusion of liposome for intracellular measurement. The particle was encapsulated in the liposome using packaging based on multi-layering method. The liposomes contain 1,3,3-Trimethylindolino-6'nitrobenzopyrylospiran (SP) that controls the surface potential o...
متن کاملComputational Inferences on Alteration of Neurotransmission in Chemotaxis Learning in Caenorhabditis elegans
Caenorhabditis elegans changes its NaCl-associated behavior from attraction to avoidance following exposure to NaCl in the absence of food (salt chemotaxis learning). To understand the changes induced by chemotaxis learning at the neuronal network level, we modeled a neuronal network of chemotaxis and estimated the changes that occurred in the nervous system by comparing the neuronal connection...
متن کاملChemotactic effect of ciliary neurotrophic factor on macrophages in retinal ganglion cell survival and axonal regeneration.
PURPOSE To examine whether ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) has a chemotactic effect on macrophages and whether macrophages are involved in CNTF-induced retinal ganglion cell (RGC) survival and axonal regeneration after optic nerve (ON) injury. METHODS Adult Fischer 344 rats received an autologous peripheral nerve graft onto transected ON for injured axons to grow. CNTF was applied intravit...
