Cysteamine core polyamidoamine G-4 dendron branched with β-cyclodextrins was chemisorbed on the surface of Au electrodes and further coated with Pt nanoparticles. Adamantane-modified glucose oxidase was subsequently immobilized on the nanostructured electrode surface by supramolecular association. This enzyme electrode was
Lack of affordable technologies for delivering microRNAs and siRNAs into cells on a large scale has hindered our efforts to rapidly parse through hundreds of dysregulated genes/microRNAs in order to identify drivers of complex diseases. The instability and polyanionic nature

Defective catabolite export from lysosomes results in lysosomal storage diseases in humans. Mutations in the cystine transporter gene CTNS cause cystinosis, but other lysosomal amino acid transporters are poorly characterized at the molecular level. Here, we identified the Caenorhabditis elegans
Sol-gel copolymer-templated mesoporous silica films with a thickness of 70 nm and interpore spacing of 4.34 nm were fabricated on gold layer covered glass substrates for application as a wavelength-interrogated surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor. The resonance wavelength (λ(R)) of

To assess whether copper deficiency plays a role in the recently described cysteamine toxicity in patients with cystinosis, and to examine whether polymorphisms in copper transporters, lysyl oxidase, and/or type I procollagen genes could be responsible for the occurrence of
