6-maleimidohexanoic acid N-hydroxysuccinimide ester has been used widely for preparation of enzyme immunoconjugates as a unique heterobifunctional cross-linking reagent. Its heterobifunctional reactivity is good, but its ester portion hydrolyzes easily in the presence of water. Several 6-maleimidohexanoic acid active esters
The adenovirus vector is a promising carrier for the efficient transfer of genes into cells via the coxackie-adenovirus receptor (CAR) and integrins (alphavbeta3 and alphavbeta5). The clinical use of the adenovirus vector remains problematic however. Successful administration of this vector

Paraneoplastic neurologic diseases (PND) involving immune responses directed toward intracellular antigens are poorly understood. Here, we examine immunity to the PND antigen Nova2, which is expressed exclusively in central nervous system (CNS) neurons. We hypothesized that ectopic expression of neuronal
We have shown that diabetes causes cerebrovascular remodeling in part by the activation of the endothelin (ET-1) system in a glucose-dependent manner. We also reported increased yet dysfunctional cerebral angiogenesis in diabetes. Here, we tested the hypothesis that dual ET-1

The pathophysiology of perinatal brain injury is multifactorial and involves hypoxia-ischemia (HI) and inflammation. N-methyl-d-aspartate receptors (NMDAR) are present on neurons and glia in immature rodents, and NMDAR antagonists are protective in HI models. To enhance clinical translation of rodent
