N-propionyl-4-S-cysteaminylphenol (NPr-4-S-CAP) is selectively incorporated into melanoma cells and degrades them. However, it remains unclear whether NPr-4-S-CAP can induce cell death associated with the induction of host immune responses and tumor suppression in vivo. To examine the molecular mechanism of
Metastatic melanoma is resistant to conventional therapies. N-propionyl-4-S-cysteaminylphenol (NPrCAP), an N-protected sulfur-amine analog of tyrosine, is a good substrate for tyrosinase and is selectively incorporated into melanoma cells, causing cytotoxicity in vitro and in vivo. We have recently shown that
The post-translational modification of proteins with O-GlcNAc is involved in various cellular processes including signal transduction, transcription, translation, and nuclear transport. This transient protein modification enables cells or tissues to adapt to nutrient conditions or stress. O-Glycosylation of the 26
A piezoelectric immunosensor based on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) co-immobilized on a dithiol-modified surface is proposed for detection of human cardiac troponin T (TnT). Anti-human troponin T (anti-TnT) antibodies were covalently immobilized on the nanostructured electrode surface by thiol-aldehyde linkages. In
A novel approach to porous polymer monoliths hypercrosslinked to obtain large surface areas and modified with zwitterionic functionalities through the attachment of gold nanoparticles in a layered architecture has been developed. The capillary columns were used for the separation of
