FInD (Foraging Interactive D-prime) - A rapid and general method for efficient and sensitive visual function assessment
21015 Background Vision screening in both clinical and basic science is a critical step that quantifies functional deficits in the visual system. In clinical practice, vision screening is essential for disease diagnosis and monitoring; in basic science, it can quantify sensory or perceptual performance or ensure that research participants meet specific...

Macrophage-Targeted Multi-Compartmental Delivery Systems
INV-1028 Background Macrophages are important immune cells in the body that regulate different biological processes involved in inflammatory and infectious diseases. Macrophages originate from the mononuclear phagocyte system (MPS) in the bone marrow. The MPS system comprises of monocytes and tissue, it matures into a larger phagocytic cell called...

Man 1-2 Man-PEGylated Derivative as a Tool for in vitro and in vivo Dendritic Cell Targeting
INV-1151 Background The immune system (IS) has a delicate equilibrium between its cells. The most important cells of the IS are the B lymphocytes (BL), macrophages (MO), and dendritic cells (DC), so-called antigen presenting cells (APC). They are the key-linkers between the innate and the adaptive immunity, which is a crucial factor that will lead...

Nanopreparation for Co-Delivery of Drugs and siRNA
INV-13004 Background Overexpression of p‑glycoprotein (encoded by MDR1 gene) is often associated with multidrug-resistant cancer. This protein leads to drug resistance by the efflux of chemotherapeutic drugs from the cancerous cells. Small interfering RNA (siRNA), also known as post-transcriptional gene silencer, can suppress the expression of specific...
