Different permeabilization patterns of splenocytes and thymocytes to combination of pulsed electric and magnetic field treatments 10.1016/j.bioelechem.2018.04.006 2018-04-10 Genetic manipulation of T cells is frequently inefficient, however, when combined with physical methods (i.e. electroporation) a promising alliance with immunotherapy can be formed. This study presents new data on permeabilization of murine thymocytes and spl...
Construction of photo-driven bioanodes using thylakoid membranes and multi-walled carbon nanotubes 10.1016/j.bioelechem.2018.04.001 2018-04-03 A photo-driven bioanode was constructed using the thylakoid membrane from spinach, carbon nanotubes, and an artificial mediator. By considering a linear free-energy relationship in the electron transfer from the thylakoid membrane to the mediators, and the ox...
An impedimetric biosensor for DNA damage detection and study of the protective effect of deferoxamine against DNA damage 10.1016/j.bioelechem.2018.03.012 2018-03-28 The detection and inhibition of DNA damage are of great importance in the prevention and treatment of diseases. Developing a simple and sensitive tool for this purpose would be a chance to monitor the DNA damage and could be helpful in introducing some drugs ...
Controlled synthesis of mixed molecular nanostructures from folate and deferrioxamine-Ga(III) on gold and tuning their performance for cancer cells 10.1016/j.bioelechem.2018.03.008 2018-03-28 A new strategy is developed for construction of the mixed molecular nanostructures from folic acid (FOA), a targeting agent, and deferrioxamoine-Ga(III), (DFO-Ga(III)), a theranostic agent, on gold-mercaptopropionic acid surface, Au-MPA. The strategy is focus...
Plasma membrane depolarization and permeabilization due to electric pulses in cell lines of different excitability 10.1016/j.bioelechem.2018.03.011 2018-03-21 In electroporation-based medical treatments, excitable tissues are treated, either intentionally (irreversible electroporation of brain cancer, gene electrotransfer or ablation of the heart muscle, gene electrotransfer of skeletal muscles), or unintentionally...
Electrochemical immunosensor for highly sensitive and quantitative detection of tumor necrosis factor-α in human serum 10.1016/j.bioelechem.2018.03.007 2018-03-20 Highly sensitive and selective biosensors for accurate determination of specific protein biomarkers at low levels in serum are a prerequisite for the present healthcare systems. Therefore, here we developed a label-free impedimetric method for tumor necrosis ...
Removal of binary Cr(VI) and Cd(II) from the catholyte of MFCs and determining their fate in EAB using fluorescence probes ☆ 10.1016/j.bioelechem.2018.02.010 2018-03-19 Electrochemically active bacteria (EAB) on the cathodes of microbial fuel cells (MFCs) can remove metals from the catholyte, but the fate of metals in the cells has not been examined in the presence of multiple metals. To study the relative uptake and fate of...
Gold nanoparticles/4-aminothiophenol interfaces for direct electron transfer of horseradish peroxidase: Enzymatic orientation and modulation of sensitivity towards hydrogen peroxide detection 10.1016/j.bioelechem.2018.03.004 2018-03-17 Hydrogen peroxide electrochemical detection by horseradish peroxidase has been widely studied. The use of gold nanoparticles to prepare electrode/enzyme bioconjugates has attracted attention due to their catalytic properties. In this work, it is reported the ...
Expressional changes in stemness markers post electrochemotherapy in pancreatic cancer cells 10.1016/j.bioelechem.2018.03.009 2018-03-15 Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal cancers with high metastatic potential and strong chemoresistance. The capability of a tumor to grow and propagate is dependent on a small subset of cells within a tumor, termed cancer stem cells. Cancer stem cells ...
Recommendations and requirements for reporting on applications of electric pulse delivery for electroporation of biological samples 10.1016/j.bioelechem.2018.03.005 2018-03-12 Electric field-induced membrane changes are an important approach in the life sciences. However, the developments in knowledge and translational applications face problems of reproducibility. Indeed, a quick survey of the literature reveals a lack of transpar...
