The Mechanisms and Biomedical Applications of an NIR BODIPY-Based Switchable Fluorescent Probe
(MDPIDepartment of Bioengineering, The University of Texas at Arlington, 11 Februar)Highly environment-sensitive fluorophores have been desired for many biomedical applications. Because of the noninvasive operation, high sensitivity, and high specificity to the microenvironment change, they can be used ... -
Mechanisms Of Biomaterial Mediated Fibrotic Responses And Strategies To Improve Tissue Reactions To Biomaterial Implants
(Biomedical Engineering, 2010-07-19)Despite considerable advancements in biomaterial synthesis and modification techniques, most tissue engineering scaffolds elicit fibrotic reactions resulting in implant encapsulation, secluding cells and/or therapeutic ... -
Mechanistic And Kinetic Studies On F420H2: NADP+ Oxidoreductase From Archeoglobus fulgidus
F420H2: NADP+ Oxidoreductase (Fno) is an F420 cofactor dependent enzyme that catalyzes the reversible reduction of NADP+ to NADPH by transferring a hydride from the reduced F420 cofactor. F420 cofactor is an essential ... -
MECHANISTIC BASIS FOR THE ROLE OF RESISTANCE AND TOLERANCE DETERMINANTS IN ANTIBIOTIC TREATMENT FAILURE
(2022-05-09)Failure of antibiotics in treatment of nosocomial Gram-negative bacterial infections has created a substantial burden for global public health. The β-lactam class of antibiotics includes last resort carbapenems, which are ... -
