Biological cell membranes are a natural barrier for living cells. In the last few decades, the
cell membrane has been the main hurdle in the efficient delivery of bioactive and therapeutic …

The increase in multidrug-resistant pathogenic bacteria has become a problem worldwide.
Currently there is a strong focus on the development of novel antimicrobials, including …

In this introductory chapter, we first define cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs), give short
overview of CPP history and discuss several aspects of CPP classification. Next section is …

Background Whilst traditional strategies to increase transfection efficiency of non-viral
systems aimed at modifying the vector or the polyplexes/lipoplexes, biomaterial-mediated …

Hymenopterans represent one of the most abundant groups of venomous organisms but
remain little explored due to the difficult access to their venom. The development of proteo …

Background Dunaliella salina (D. salina) expression system shows a very attractive
application prospect, but it currently has a technical bottleneck, namely the low or unstable …

Cell penetrating peptides (CPPs) hold immense potential for the transport of therapeutic
agents to their active targets, due to their low cytotoxicity and high transduction efficiency …

hnRNPK is a multifunctional protein that plays an important role in cancer cell proliferation
and metastasis via its RNA-and DNA-binding properties. Previously we showed that cell …

In this review article, the history of the first commercially available thoracic aortic hybrid graft,
the E-vita Open, later modified to the blood-impermeable E-vita Open Plus, is reported from …

Cell penetrating peptides (CPPs) are unique molecules with the ability to pass through
biological membranes as they carry their cargoes into the cells. Endocytosis and direct …
