A method for producing protease pS273R of the African swine fever virus.

The pS273R protease of the African swine fever virus (ASFV) is responsible for the processing of the viral polyproteins pp220 and pp62, precursors of the internal capsid of the virus. The protease is essential for a productive viral infection and is an attractive target for antiviral therapy. This work presents a method for the production of pS273R in E.

Development of early diagnosis of Parkinson's disease on animal models based on the intranasal administration of α-methyl-p-tyrosine methyl ester in a gel system.

The fight against neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson's disease (PD), is a global challenge of this century. The effectiveness of current PD therapy is limited, since it is diagnosed many years after the onset, following the death of most nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurons regulating motor function. PD treatment could be greatly improved if it was started at an early (preclinical) stage.

Shape anisotropic magnetic thrombolytic actuators: synthesis and systematic behavior study.

Thrombosis-related diseases are undoubtedly the deadliest disorders. During the last decades, numerous attempts were made to reduce the overall death rate and severe complications caused by treatment delays. Significant progress has been made in the development of nanostructured thrombolytics, especially magnetically controlled.

Albumin covering maintains endothelial function upon magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles intravenous injection in rats.

Magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (IONP) present the promising instrument for broad-spectrum of clinical applications, for example, targeted drug delivery. Reactivity of nanoparticles depends on their surface area and material. In the blood plasma IONP are getting covered with an albumin crown, so it was decided to test this shell for biocompatibility.
