Method for Isolating Oral Mucosa-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Tissue and Organ Regeneration

Identification and isolation of the mesenchymal stem cells from the general population of oral mucosa-derived cells may further improve regenerative therapies. Using cutting edge technology, we’ve been able to identify the subpopulation of mesenchymal stem cells with superior osteogenic capacity and furthermore, to unveil a list of unique markers to isolate these cells. Our findings […] Read More >

Therapeutic Monoclonal Antibodies to Combat Multidrug-Resistant Pathogenic Bacteria

It is predicted that a failure to address the problem of antibiotic-resistant pathogens will result in the death of 10 million people annually, costing the economy more than 100 trillion dollars by the year 2050. In high-income countries where antibiotics are heavily used in the community and agriculture, the strong selection pressure and non-completed antibiotic […] Read More >

Stable enzyme-responsive nanocarriers with a-two step activation mechanism

The Challenge: Polymeric nanocarriers that can release their covalently attached or encapsulated cargo in response to specific stimuli can offer many advantages such as greater selectivity and consequently reduced side-effects. Among the different types of stimuli-responsive nanocarriers, enzyme-responsive delivery systems can act as a Trojan horse and release their active payload in response to specific […] Read More >

Therapeutic Targeting of PD-1/PD-L1 blockade by Novel Small-molecule Inhibitors

Interactions between programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) and programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) lead to the evasion of cancer cells from an efficient immune response. The inhibition of PD-L1/PD-1 has prevented or reversed exhausted T cells, thus enhancing antitumor T-cell responses. In fact, immune checkpoint blockade targeting the PD-1 axis has become one […] Read More >

Leveraging Gene Panel Sequencing Data for Mutational Signature Analysis with Applications to Personalized Treatment

UNMET NEED Mutational signatures and their exposures are key to understanding the processes that shape cancer genomes with applications to diagnosis and treatment. Yet current signature analysis approaches are limited to relatively rich mutation data that comes from whole-genome or whole-exome sequencing. Recently, orders of magnitude sparser data sets from gene panel sequencing have become […] Read More >

Efficient information coding in living organisms

It is clear that DNA can be used as a storage medium, each nucleotide carrying two information bits, which can store vast amounts of data for very long periods of time and with high reliability; as overtime, humans remain human just as cats remain cats. However, it is also clear that it is a very […] Read More >

Development of Alzheimer Disease therapy based on counteracting the pathological effects of ApoE4

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia and is the outcome of progressive brain cells death. Due to the disorder’s heterogeneity and in view of the variety of pathological mechanisms inducing the disease    we have undertaken an innovative – science based (Animal model) approach, which is presented here. Our unique approach […] Read More >

Homocysteine fibrillar assemblies display crosstalk with Alzheimer’s disease amyloid polypeptide

High levels of homocysteine (Hcy) are reported as a risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Correspondingly, inborn hyperhomocysteinemia is associated with an increased predisposition to the development of dementia in later stages of life. Furthermore, despite the apparent association between protein aggregation and AD, attempts to develop a therapy that targets explicitly this process have […] Read More >
