We designed to determine whether pretreatment of allografts with methoxypolyethylene glycol-succinimidyl-propionic acid ester (mPEG-SPA) and an anti-OX40L monoclonal antibody (McAb) can relieve acute graft-versus-host disease in allogeneic bone marrow transplantation recipients. Responder splenocytes from C57BL/6 donor mice were incubated with

Immunocamouflaged red blood cells (RBC) are produced by cell surface derivatization with methoxypolyethylene glycol (mPEG). These immunologically attenuated cells may reduce the risk of allosensitization in chronically transfused patients. To characterize the effects of differing linker chemistries and polymer lengths

Uricase has proven therapeutic value in treating hyperuricemia but sufficient reduction of its immunogenicity may be the largest obstacle to its chronic use. In this study, canine uricase was modified with 5 kDa mPEG-SPA and the impact of large aggregated

Synthesis of Magnetic Nanoparticles for Biosensing

Professor Randal Lee (University of Houston, USA) discusses design considerations for iron oxide magnetic nanospheres and nanocubes used for biosensing, including synthetic procedures, size, and shape. The effects of these variables are discussed for various volumetric-based and surface-based detection schemes.

Smart Oligonucleotide Delivery by Multifunctional Block Copolymers

Kanjiro Miyata (The University of Tokyo, Japan) provides insights on the rational design of polymeric materials for “smart” oligonucleotide delivery.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
