The purpose of the present work was to examine the effect of different Ti-6Al-4V surface treatments on osteoblasts behaviour. Previous work in this laboratory has demonstrated that an ageing treatment reduces metal ion release from this alloy compared to s ...
OBJECTIVE: In tissue engineering, three-dimensional biodegradable scaffolds are generally used as a basic structure for cell anchorage, cell proliferation and cell differentiation. The currently used biodegradable scaffolds in cardiovascular tissue enginee ...
The gibbon ape leukaemia virus envelope fusogenic membrane glycoprotein (GALV FMG) is a highly potent cytotoxic gene with great potential for use in cancer gene therapy. Here, we show that production of a VSV-G pseudotyped lentiviral vector expressing GALV ...
To overcome ammonia inhibition in animal cell culture, a method utilizing porous polytetrafluoroethylene membranes with an assocd. pH gradient was investigated. Model expts. without cells were carried out in three different reactor configurations suitable ...
Transient gene expression (TGE) in mammalian cells at the reactor scale is becoming increasingly important for the rapid production of recombinant proteins. We improved a process for transient calcium phosphate-based transfection of HEK293-EBNA cells in a ...
This study correlates the fluorescent signal from stable recombinant CHO cell lines expressing the green fluorescent protein (GFP) at high levels with biomass or cell number, extending the use of fluorescent proteins to applications and assays where cell g ...
Several fluorescent probes for the NK2 receptor were designed, synthesized, and pharmacologically characterized. These fluorescent ligands are analogues of the selective NK2 heptapeptide antagonist N-alpha-benzoyl- Ala-Ala-D-Trp-Phe-D-Pro-Pro-Nle-NH2 (1, G ...
PURPOSE: To investigate the potential use of polymeric nanoparticles for the delivery of antisense oligonucleotides in HIV-1-infected cell cultures. METHODS: Phosphorothioate oligonucleotides were encapsulated into poly (D,L-lactic acid) nanoparticles. Two ...
Biomaterials play a pivotal role in field of tissue engineering. Biomimetic synthetic polymers have been created to elicit specific cellular functions and to direct cell-cell interactions both in implants that are initially cell-free, which may serve as ma ...
BACKGROUND: Chronic granulomatous diseases (CGD) are caused by impaired antimicrobial activity in phagocytes, due to the absence or malfunction of the respiratory burst NADPH oxidase. Two-thirds of the patients have mutations in their X-linked CGD gene enc ...
