The number of various cargo delivered into cells by CPPs demonstrates the effective transport abilities of these short-peptidic sequences. Over the years of research, the translocation process of CPP–cargo complexes has been mapped to being of mostly endocytic nature, however, there is ...

As more and more studies utilize cell-penetrating peptides to deliver pharmacologically interesting substances, there is a growing need to understand their effect on the plasma membrane. If a cell-penetrating peptide together with its cargo is to be used as a drug, it is necessary to underst ...

Cationic peptides are efficiently taken up by biological cells through different pathways, which can be exploited for delivery of intracellular drugs. For example, their endocytosis is known since 1967, and this typically produces entrapment of the peptides in endocytotic vesicle ...

Cell-penetrating peptides are short, often hydrophilic peptides that get access to the intracellular milieu. They have aroused great interest both in academic and applied research. First, cellular internalization of CPPs often involves the crossing of a biological membrane (pla ...

The classical view on how peptides enter cells has been changed due to the development in the research field of cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs). During the last 15 years, more than 100 peptide sequences have been published to enter cells and also to bring different biological cargoes with them. H ...

Transfected cell microarrays, arrays of cells expressing defined cDNAs, are promising technologies that can enable the functional analysis of many proteins in parallel. This technique has been adapted for the comparative functional analysis of single-chain antibodies (scFvs) ...

Blood is a tremendous source of data for diagnostic purposes. Thanks to the qualitative and quantitative analysis of the different cell types carried into the blood stream. To that end, cell capture of several cell types at different locations on a microarray is an interesting alternative to cl ...

DNA, protein and cell microarrays are increasingly used in a multitude of bioassays. All of these arrays require substrates that are suitable for the immobilisation and display of arrayed probe molecules whilst at the same time resisting non-specific interactions of biomolecules with ...

Cell-based microarrays are promising tools for high-throughput functional analysis of gene products, but their application has been limited to adherent cells due to the difficulty in immobilization of non-adherent cells. Herein, we have introduced our techniques that can rapidly a ...

Polymer microarrays as platforms for cell-based assays are presented, offering a unique approach to high-throughput cellular analysis. These high-throughput (HT) platforms are used for the screening of new materials with the purpose of first finding substrates upon which a specific ...

Genome-wide functional annotation of genes is one of the major challenges in current biology. Such investigation requires a high-throughput methodology for efficient and parallel overexpression or silencing of multiplexed genes in living cells. The transfection method descr ...

Cell-based arrays offer powerful tools for genomics/proteomics and drug discovery, and are widely applicable for most cell lines. However, it is challenging to apply cell-based arrays for in vitro diagnosis due to limited amount of patient samples. Here, we utilized and demonstrated micr ...

Cell-based microarrays were first described by Ziauddin and Sabatini in 2001 as a novel method for performing high-throughput screens of gene function. They reported a technique whereby expression vectors containing the open reading frame (ORF) of human genes were printed onto glass mi ...

Analysis of the human genome sequence has identified thousands of putative genes with unknown function; therefore, a new tool allowing for rapid identification of gene functions is needed. Reverse transfection microarray technology, which turns a DNA microarray into a cell-based mi ...

Cell-based microarrays are a powerful technology platform for performing high-throughput screens of gene function. The approach entails printing expression vectors containing either genes or shRNAs onto a glass microscope slide or 384-well microtitre plate to form an array. The ...

Cell-based microarrays have been used for a wide variety of assays including gain-of-function, loss-of-function and compound screening. Many of these assays have employed fluorescent proteins as reporters. These fluorescent reporter proteins can be monitored in living cells but h ...

We have described a protocol for performing high-throughput immunofluorescence microscopy on microarrays of yeast cells. This approach employs immunostaining of spheroplasted yeast cells printed as high-density cell microarrays, followed by imaging using automated mic ...

The Golgi complex is the central organelle in the secretory membrane trafficking and its organization strongly depends upon the flow of coming and leaving material. The principles of cargo transfer to, through, and away from the Golgi complex were investigated in numerous studies. Howeve ...

Genome-wide screening procedures have developed into a useful tool for assigning new functions to known proteins or for identifying new interplayers in cell metabolism, especially under pathological conditions. Since primary cells reflect the physiological situation more c ...

Several human pathogenic viruses encode large genomes with often more than 100 genes. Viral pathogenicity is determined by carefully orchestrated co-operative activities of several different viral genes which trigger the phenotypic functions of the infected cells. Systemat ...
