Book ChapterDOI
RNA: Transcription, transfection and quantitation
TL;DR: The chapter presents three methods that have optimized for RNA, including Lipofectin transfection and electroporation, and two-cycle RNase protection, which are useful when only a small quantity of RNA is available.

Viral vectors useful in induction of humoral or cellular immunity
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used recombinant viral vectors that take advantage of the activity of picornaviral protein 3A in modulating cytokine secretion and antigen presentation on MHC Class I (MHC I), which in turn provides for modulation of a Th1-mediated immune response to the transfected host cell.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Photocatalytically produced water is a reliable substitute for diethyl pyrocarbonate-treated water used in RNA work, compatible with PCR and sufficiently free from other contaminants to be useful for most biochemical and enzymatic assays.
Patent
IMMUNOMODULATION BY CONTROLLING INTERFERON-GAMMA LEVELS WITH THE LONG NON-CODING RNA NeST
TL;DR: In this paper, compositions and methods of modulating an immune response by controlling levels of interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) production by leukocytes are disclosed.
