The Plasmodium falciparum kinome includes a family of four protein kinases (Pfnek-1 to -4) related to the NIMA (never-in-mitosis) family, members of which play important roles in mitosis and meiosis in eukaryotic cells. Only one of these, Pfnek-1, which we ...
Aurora kinases compose a family of conserved Ser/Thr protein kinases playing essential roles in eukaryotic cell division. To date, Aurora homologues remain uncharacterized in the protozoan phylum Apicomplexa. In malaria parasites, the characterization of A ...
Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) are promising tools as drug delivery devices. However, upon intravenous injection, they aggregate and are rapidly eliminated from the systemic circulation by macrophages in the reticuloendothelial system, resulting in relatively s ...
The analysis of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) from the blood of cancer patients promises a better understanding of metastasis formation and tumor phenotypes. CTCs are rare (there is 1 CTC in 1 billion of circulating blood cells) and therefore challenging ...
This paper reports the new combination of cell sorting and counting capabilities on a single device. Most state-of-the-art devices combining these technologies use optical techniques requiring complicated experimental setups and labeled samples. The use of ...
We propose to apply statistical clustering algorithms on a three-dimensional profile of red blood cells (RBCs) obtained through digital holographic microscopy (DHM). We show that two classes of RBCs stored for 14 and 38 days can be effectively classified. ...
The migration rate of sharp meander bends exhibits large variance and indicates that some sharply curved bends tend to stabilize. These observations remain unexplained. This paper examines three hydrodynamic processes in sharp bends with fixed banks and di ...
Vascular-disrupting agents (VDAs) such as combretastatin A4 phosphate (CA4P) selectively disrupt blood vessels in tumors and induce tumor necrosis. However, tumors rapidly repopulate after treatment with such compounds. Here, we show that CA4P-induced vess ...
Progress in understanding signal transduction and metabolic pathways is hampered by a shortage of suitable sensors for tracking metabolites, second messengers, and neurotransmitters in living cells. Here we introduce a class of rationally designed semisynt ...
