Extracellular vesicles (EVs), specifically exosomes and microvesicles (MVs), are presumed
to play key roles in cell–cell communication via transfer of biomolecules between cells. The …

Functional delivery of mRNA to tissues in the body is key to implementing fundamentally new
and potentially transformative strategies for vaccination, protein replacement therapy, and …

Tuberculosis is a leading cause of death worldwide. Resistance of Mycobacterium to antibiotics
can make treatments less effective in some cases. We tested selected oligopeptoids—…

An emerging approach for cancer treatment employs the use of extracellular vesicles,
specifically exosomes and microvesicles, as delivery vehicles. We previously demonstrated that …

A gene encoding a heat-stable enterotoxin (ST) from an Escherichia coli strain isolated from
a human with diarrhea was cloned and characterized by nucleotide sequence analysis. The …

Prepolarized MRI uses pulsed magnetic fields to produce MR images by polarizing the
sample at one field strength (∼0.5 T) before imaging at a much lower field (∼50 mT). Contrast …

Infections are a major concern in orthopedics. Antibacterial agents such as silver ions are of
great interest as broad‐spectrum biocides and have been incorporated into bioactive glass–…

Placental immunity is critical for fetal health during pregnancy, as invading pathogens spread
from the parental blood to the fetus through this organ. However, inflammatory responses …

The delicate balance between protective immunity and inflammatory disease is challenged
during sepsis, a pathologic state characterized by aspects of both a hyperactive immune …

Purpose Bone is a preferential site of breast cancer metastasis, and models are needed to
study this process at the level of the microenvironment. We have used bioluminescence …
