Qualitative and quantitative studies of Gc (vitamin D-binding protein) in normal subjects and patients with periodontal disease.

TL;DR: The whole saliva of patients with periodontal disease contained concentrations of Gc which were significantly increased over those in either dentulous or edentulous control subjects, and 90% of GC in saliva from these patients was complexed with G-actin.

Nanoinformatics 2020 Roadmap

TL;DR: The Nanoinformatics 2020 Roadmap as mentioned in this paper is the first broad-based community effort to articulate the comprehensive needs and goals in nano-informatic research and development efforts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nanocarrier Co-formulation for Delivery of a TLR7 Agonist plus an Immunogenic Cell Death Stimulus Triggers Effective Pancreatic Cancer Chemo-immunotherapy.

TL;DR: A lipid bilayer-coated mesoporous silica nanoparticle (silicasome) platform for co-delivery of the TLR7/8 agonist 3M-052 and the accompanying increase in CD8+ T-cell infiltration along with a reduced number of regulatory T-cells was associated with tumor shrinkage and metastasis disappearance in subcutaneous and orthotopic KRAS-mediated pancreatic carcinoma tumor models.

Mesoporous silica nanoparticles with lipid bilayer coating for cargo delivery

TL;DR: In this article, a nanocarrier including a silica body having a surface and defining a plurality of pores that are suitable to receive molecules therein is described, which includes a lipid bilayer coating the surface, and a cargo-trapping agent within the phospholipid bilayer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Filling knowledge gaps that distinguish the safety profiles of nano versus bulk materials.

TL;DR: Research into the hazards of engineered nanomaterials has spawned the development of a new multidisciplinary science—nanotoxicology—which aims to understand the toxicological effects of these materials.
