Protein coronaFoodThe antimicrobial peptide produced by Bacillus velesensis P34 has a broad activity against Gram-positive bacteria, showing potential as natural food preservative. In this work, nanocapsules (NCs) containing the peptide P34 were produced using the polymers poly-蔚-caprolactone (PCL) ...
as a food writer, never thought I would see in my kitchen. The macho aesthetic of the packaging made my heart sink. I am also no fan of artificial sweeteners, which I believe do no favours either to the palate or to gut bacteria. What’s more, I believe most people should be able ...
however, to realize their potential it is critical to control formation and composition of the protein corona in biological media. In this work, protein adsorption studies were carried out at carbon surfaces functionalized with aryldiazonium layers bearing ...
“cross-reacting material 197”), a modified form of diphtheriatoxoid. CRM197 has proved safe and effective in humans, and is now used globally in conjugate vaccines against encapsulated bacteria such asH. influenzae, or species ofPneumococcusorMeningococcus. Even in infants, these vaccines induce ...
light on the importance of tuning the fluidity and protein corona of naovaccines to program T cell immunity in mice and may inspire new strategies for cancer immunotherapy. Similar content being viewed by others Generation of whole tumor cell vaccine for on-demand manipulation of immune responses ...
in coronaviral research has led to the discovery of several novel human CoVs and since then much progress has been made in understanding the CoV life cycle. The CoV envelope (E) protein is a small, integral membrane protein involved in several aspects of the virus’ life cycle, such as ...
In particular, the proportion of beneficial bacteria, such as Bacteroides and Bifidobacterium, was enhanced for the coated nanoparticles. Our results suggest that the formation of a whey protein corona around TiO2 nanoparticles may have beneficial effects on their behavior within the colon. This study...
Viruses of the family Coronaviridae possess a single stranded, positive-sense RNA genome ranging from 26 to 32 kilobases in length. Coronaviruses have been identified in several avian hosts, as well as in various mammals, including camels, bats, masked palm civets, mice, dogs, and cats. Novel...
. The derived antisera can be used inbiological assays(neutralization of viruses,opsonizationof bacteria, or binding to the pathogen or human cancer cell surface) to see whether the protein may be an attractive vaccine candidate. The new protein is also used in animal challenge models. One ...
The overall size of the bPE and the relative sizes of the neutral and ionizable blocks both can be tuned to influence the size, shape and compositions of the micelles, with the core and the corona sizes, and the protein loading in the micelle cores all independently optimizable, as ...
