Live-cell Imaging of Endocytic Transport using Functionalized Nanobodies in Cultured Cells

Endocytic and retrograde transport of proteins from the plasma membrane to the trans-Golgi network is essential to maintaining membrane homeostasis and regulating signaling. Here, we describe a method to image and quantify endocytic transport of transmembrane cargo proteins by live-cell microscopy using derivatized anti-GFP nanobodies in HeLa cells.

In Vitro Growth of Mouse Preantral Follicles Under Simulated Microgravity

A highly promising technique to generate tissue constructs without using matrix is to culture cells in a simulated microgravity condition. Using a rotary culture system, we examined ovarian follicle growth and oocyte maturation in terms of follicle survival, morphology, growth, and oocyte function under the simulated microgravity...

Optimize Flue Gas Settings to Promote Microalgae Growth in Photobioreactors via Computer Simulations

Flue gas from power plants is a cheap CO2 source for algal growth. We have built prototype "flue gas to algal cultivation" systems and described how to scale up the algal cultivation process. We have demonstrated the use of a mass-transfer bio-reaction model to simulate and to design the optimal operation of flue gas for the growth of Chlorella sp. in algal...

Polyelectrolyte Complex for Heparin Binding Domain Osteogenic Growth Factor Delivery

Self-assembled polyelectrolyte complexes (PEC) fabricated from heparin and protamine were deposited on alginate beads to entrap and regulate the release of osteogenic growth factors. This delivery strategy enables a 20-fold reduction of BMP-2 dose in spinal fusion applications. This article illustrates the benefits and fabrication of...
