Potential role of fecal volatile organic compounds as biomarkers of chemically induced intestinal inflammation in mice (2019)
Journal Article
Reade, S., Williams, J. M., Aggio, R., Duckworth, C. A., Mahalhal, A., Hough, R., …Probert, C. S. (2019). Potential role of fecal volatile organic compounds as biomarkers of chemically induced intestinal inflammation in mice. FASEB Journal, 33(3), 3129-3136. https://doi.org/10.1096/fj.201800076RR

Metabolomics studies have the potential to discover biomarkers. Fecal volatile organic compounds (VOCs) have been found to differ in patients with inflammatory bowel disease and irritable bowel syndrome. Murine models of colitis offer an alternative...

CD44 targeted delivery of siRNA by using HA-decorated nanotechnologies for KRAS silencing in cancer treatment (2019)
Journal Article
Tirella, A., Kloc-Muniak, K., Good, L., Ridden, J., Ashford, M., Puri, S., & Tirelli, N. (2019). CD44 targeted delivery of siRNA by using HA-decorated nanotechnologies for KRAS silencing in cancer treatment. International Journal of Pharmaceutics, 561, 114-123. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijpharm.2019.02.032

KRAS is a small GTPase that regulates cell proliferation and survival. In tumors, the KRAS gene is mutated, and leading to unregulated tumor growth. Despite the recognized importance of KRAS in cancer, attempts to develop small molecule inhibitors ha...

Doxycycline inhibits pre-rRNA processing and mature rRNA formation in E. coli (2019)
Journal Article
Chukwudi, C. U., & Good, L. (2019). Doxycycline inhibits pre-rRNA processing and mature rRNA formation in E. coli. Journal of Antibiotics, 72, 225-236. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41429-019-0149-0

In bacteria, RNase III cleaves the initial long primary ribosomal RNA transcripts/precursors (pre-rRNAs), thereby releasing the pre-16S and pre-23S rRNAs for maturation. This cleavage is specified by the double-stranded secondary structures flanking... Read More about Doxycycline inhibits pre-rRNA processing and mature rRNA formation in E. coli.
