Biocleavable Polyrotaxane−Plasmid DNA Polyplex for Enhanced Gene Delivery

TL;DR: Transfection of the DMAE−SS−PRX polyplex is independent of the amount of free polycation, and those properties played a key role for delivery of pDNA clusters to the nucleus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Endothelial cells require STAT3 for protection against endotoxin-induced inflammation.

TL;DR: It is shown that a soluble activity derived from endothelia and dependent on STAT3 is critical for suppression of interferon γ, and this data define STAT3 signaling within endothelium as a critical antiinflammatory mediator and provide new insight to the protective function of ECs in inflammation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ureido-Derivatized Polymers Based on Both Poly(allylurea) and Poly(l-citrulline) Exhibit UCST-Type Phase Transition Behavior under Physiologically Relevant Conditions

TL;DR: This study demonstrated that polymers with ureido groups undergo UCST-type phase transitions under physiologically relevant conditions and suggested that the Ureido modification will be useful for production of polymer materials with UCST behavior in aqueous media.
Journal ArticleDOI

IRF-1 Is an Essential Mediator in IFN-γ-Induced Cell Cycle Arrest and Apoptosis of Primary Cultured Hepatocytes

TL;DR: It is reported here that interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF-1) is an essential molecule in these phenomena and mediates IFN-gamma signaling into primary hepatocytes for cell cycle arrest via p53 expression and for apoptosis.
