1. Gene Silencing Therapeutics in Cardiology: A Review Article
Abstract Therapeutics that inhibit enzymes, receptors, ion channels, and cotransporters have long been the mainstay of cardiovascular medicine. Now, oligonucleotide therapeutics offer a modern variation on this paradigm of protein inhibition. Rather than target a protein, however, small interfering ribonucleic acids and antisense oligonucleotides target the

2. Molecular farming of antimicrobial peptides: available platforms and strategies for improving protein biosynthesis using modified virus vectors
Abstract The constant demand for new antibiotic drugs has driven efforts by the scientific community to prospect for peptides with a broad spectrum of action. In this context, antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) have acquired great scientific importance in recent years due to their ability to possess antimicrobial and immunomodulatory activity. In the last two dec

3. Preparation and characterization of non-viral gene delivery systems with pEGFP-C1 Plasmid DNA
ABSTRACT In recent years, non-viral delivery systems for plasmid DNA have become particularly important. They can overcome the disadvantages of viral systems such as insertional mutagenesis and unpredicted immunogenicity. Some additional advantages of non-viral gene delivery systems are; good stability, low cost, targetability, delivery of a high amount of g

4. Cholesterol improves the transfection efficiency of polyallylamine as a non-viral gene delivery vector
ABSTRACT Cationic polymers such as polyallylamine (PAA) having primary amino groups are poor transfection agents and possess a high cytotoxicity index when used without any chemical modification. In this study, PAA was modified with cholesterol in order to improve transfection efficiency and to reduce cytotoxicity. PAA polymers with molecular weights of 15 a

5. Gene transfer utilizing pollen-tubes of Albuca nelsonii and Tulbaghia violacea
Abstract Developing a tissue culture-independent genetic transformation system would be an interesting technique for gene transfer in valuable medicinal and horticultural plants. Efficient gene delivery (Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain LBA 4404: harbouring PBI121 plasmid) was achieved with Km-resistant pollen grains (pollen tube technique) and were found to

6. Mortality by sickle cell disease in Brazil
Abstract This work aimed to characterize mortality by sickle cell disease in Brazil. The MEDLINE electronic database was searched using the terms ‘mortality' and ‘sickle cell disease' and ‘Brazil' for articles published in the last five years aiming to provide a current analysis of the subject in question. Eight studies on mortality by sickle cell dise

7. Whisker-mediated transformation of peanut with chitinase gene enhances resistance to leaf spot disease
Abstract Peanut (Arachis hypogaea) is an important legume and oilseed crop, native to South America and grown in all tropical and temperate regions of the world. A simplified and rapid direct gene delivery system in peanut was developed by vortexing silicon carbide whiskers with callus and with plasmid harboring chitinase and hygromcin genes. The effects of

8. Bonafide, type-specific human papillomavirus persistence among HIV-positive pregnant women: predictive value for cytological abnormalities, a longitudinal cohort study
This study investigated the rate of human papillomavirus (HPV) persistence, associated risk factors, and predictors of cytological alteration outcomes in a cohort of human immunodeficiency virus-infected pregnant women over an 18-month period. HPV was typed through L1 gene sequencing in cervical smears collected during gestation and at 12 months after delive

9. Production of Lentiviral Vectors Encoding Recombinant Factor VIII Expression in Serum-Free Suspension Cultures
ABSTRACT Lentiviral vector-mediated gene transfer offers several advantages over other gene delivery vectors when considering gene and cell therapy applications. However, using these therapies in clinical applications involves large-scale vector production in an efficient and cost-effective manner. Here we describe a high yield production of a lentivirus enc

10. Delivery of the Sox9 gene promotes chondrogenic differentiation of human umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells in an in vitro model
SRY-related high-mobility-group box 9 (Sox9) gene is a cartilage-specific transcription factor that plays essential roles in chondrocyte differentiation and cartilage formation. The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility of genetic delivery of Sox9 to enhance chondrogenic differentiation of human umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem ce

11. Sistemas de liberação de geleificação in situ para veiculação de siRNA: desenvolvimento, caracterização e estudos in vitro e in vivo em modelo animal / In situ gelling delivery systems for siRNA: development, characterization and studies in vitro and in vivo in animal model
A comprovação de que siRNA pode ser usado para supressão de genes em diferentes células de mamíferos atraiu grande atenção como nova possibilidade de tratamento para diversas doenças. No entanto, para aplicação terapêutica de siRNA é necessário o desenvolvimento de um sistema de liberação efetivo e não tóxico, que permita a captação celula

12. Desenvolvimento de vetores não virais para entrega gênica baseados na cadeia leve de dineína Rp3 = : Development of non viral vectors for gene delivery based on dynein light chain Rp3 / Development of non viral vectors for gene delivery based on dynein light chain Rp3
Gene delivery is a promising technique with great medical potential that consists in the introduction of exogenous nucleic acids, and can be applied for gene therapy as well as DNA vaccination. However, its use is still limited by the lack of an ideal delivery vector, which is both safe and efficient. Although much more effective, viral vectors still raise s
