摘要:
According to aspects illustrated herein, there is provided an agent that transiently disrupts claudin-1 within tight junctions. The agent includes a peptide having at least 40% polar, uncharged amino acid residues and a self-assembled β-sheet secondary structure. According to aspects illustrated herein, there is also provided a transepithelial drug and vaccine formulations, as well as isolated peptides, pharmaceutical compositions, and transdermal delivery devices. Also described herein are methods of disrupting epithelial barrier and methods of administering the transepithelial formulations described herein.
摘要:
Method of identifying molecular beacons in which a secondary structure prediction algorithm is employed to identify oligonucleotide sequences within a target gene having the requisite hairpin structure. Isolated oligonucleotides, molecular beacons prepared from those oligonucleotides, and their use are also disclosed.
摘要:
A biological sensor which includes: a porous semiconductor structure comprising a central layer interposed between upper and lower layers, each of the upper and lower layers including strata of alternating porosity; and one or more probes coupled to the porous semiconductor structure, the one or more probes binding to a target molecule, whereby a detectable change occurs in a refractive index of the biological sensor upon binding of the one or more probes to the target molecule. Methods of making the biological sensor and methods of using the same are disclosed, as is a detection device which includes such a biological sensor.
