Over the last three decades, scientists have devised molecular shuttles that slip enzymes, antibodies, and other molecules into the central nervous system (CNS) by attaching them to the transferrin ...
Duetta is a highly sensitive spectrofluorometer that can be used to measure transferrin at very low concentrations. By ...
This new article publication from Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica B, discusses a transferrin receptor-targeted immunostimulant for photodynamic immunotherapy against metastatic tumors through β-catenin/CREB ...
In an important step toward more effective gene therapies for brain diseases, researchers have engineered a gene-delivery vehicle that uses a human protein to efficiently cross the blood-brain barrier ...
Iron intake and soluble transferrin receptor were positively associated with insulin resistance, whereas serum iron and transferrin receptor were negatively associated. Disturbances in iron metabolism ...
Living cells and tissues show a high capacity to absorb various chemical compounds from the surrounding environment. Although the absorption of small molecules is quite simple for cells and tissues, ...
Gene therapy can be a promising therapy for both genetic and acquired brain disease. However, the limiting problem in brain gene therapy is delivery to the brain followed by regulation of the ...
STOCKHOLM, Nov. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- BioArctic AB (publ) (NASDAQ: BIOA B) (STOCKHOLM: BIOA B) has presented the design of its proprietary BrainTransporter (BT) platform at the 16th annual Protein & ...
Each cell is separated from its environment by a membrane that protects the cell from the outside environment. However, this barrier can be overcome by certain chemicals that sustain the basic ...
