This invention relates compositions and methods for increasing the uptake of polynucleotides into cells. Specifically, the invention relates to vectors, targeting ligands, and polycationic agents. The polycationic agents are capable of (1) increasing the frequency of uptake of polynucleotides into a cell, (2) condensing polynucleotides; and (3) inhibiting serum and/or nuclease degradation of polynucleotides.
摘要:
A device for the generation of a drive signal phase-shifted with respect to an external synchronization signal includes a first digital phase-locked loop to give a reference signal, servo-linked to the external synchronization signal by a current phase among N phases of a high frequency signal. The device includes a second digital phase-locked loop including a measuring circuit to measure the position of an active edge of the drive signal or a derived signal that is delayed with respect to an active edge of the reference signal. The second phase-locked loop also includes a circuit to compute the phase shift to be made and a phase-shift circuit. The measurement circuit includes a circuit for the rough measurement of the position, controlled by a fixed phase of the high frequency signal independent of the present phase of locking in the first loop. The digital computation circuit accounts for this shift between the fixed phase and the present phase. The device applies to circuits for linear signal processing in a monitor.

摘要:
The invention is composed of monoclonal human MN antibodies or MN antibody fragments that target the GEEDLP repeat within the proteoglycan domain. The proteoglycan domain of the MN cell surface protein contains four of these identical GEEDLP repeats. Binding to the desired epitope is verified by competition ELISA, where ELISA signal can be attenuated by co-incubation with a peptide containing this repeat (PGEEDLPGEEDLP). This inhibition of binding can also be verified using Biacore assays, where binding of desired antibodies to immobilized MN or proteoglycan peptides can be inhibited by the peptide repeat. In addition to binding to the peptide repeat, human anti-MN antibodies can inhibit the cell adhesion of CGL-1 cells to MN coated plastic plates. Human anti-MN antibodies have been used to diagnose and quantify MN expression in cancer cells and tumors using FACS and immunohistochemical methods. An example is also provided where a human anti-MN IgG1 mediates tumor cell lysis though antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity. Therefore, these antibodies will be useful for the treatment of cancers in which MN is upregulated or can be useful for the diagnosis of cancers in which MN is upregulated.
