Nanoparticles must recognize, adhere to, and/or traverse multiple barriers in sequence to achieve cytosolic drug delivery. New nanoparticles often exhibit a unique ability to cross a single barrier (i.e. the vasculature, cell membrane, or endosomal compartment), but fail to deliver an adequate dose to intracellular sites of action because they…[Read more]

tions of primary mediastinal germ cell tumors with yolk sac tumor components; (2) they mostly consist of neoplastic vessels in a stroma that also generates neoplastic vascular walls of smooth muscle; (3) VMTs are associated with an increased incidence of sarcomas, even though most vasculogenic lesions in this context do not meet criteria for…[Read more]

Interfacial shear strength (IFSS) is a key property in the design of composites and nanocomposites. Many simulation studies quantify the interfacial characteristics of sandwichlike specimens in terms of the IFSS and pullout force; a common feature of these studies is that they employ finite model systems and are therefore subject to strong finite…[Read more]

Globally, rates of hyperglycaemia in pregnancy are highest among Indigenous women. The highest prevalence has been documented among Aboriginal women in the Northern Territory of Australia. Despite knowledge of this for over two decades, there has been very limited examination of the specific needs and experiences of Aboriginal women regarding this…[Read more]

5 h after infection by K. pneumoniae strains of the K57 capsular type. The therapeutic effect of the depolymerases is because they strip the capsule and expose the underlying bacterium to the immune attack such as complement-mediated killing. These data provide one more confirmation that phage polysaccharide depolymerases represent a promising…[Read more]
