Nitrogen-doped carbon nanodots prepared from polyethylenimine for fluorometric determination of salivary uric acid
Stable and low-cost carbon dots (C-dots) were prepared from polyethylenimine (PEI) by a hydrothermal method. It is found that the fluorescence of the C-dots (best measured at excitation/emission wavelengths of...

Open AccessThe Endogenous GRP78 Interactome in Human Head and Neck Cancers: A Deterministic Role of Cell Surface GRP78 in Cancer Stemness
Cell surface glucose regulated protein 78 (GRP78), an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) chaperone, was suggested to be a cancer stem cell marker, but the influence of this molecule on cancer stemness is poorly charac...

Open AccessRapid Staining of Circulating Tumor Cells in Three-Dimensional Microwell Dialysis (3D-μDialysis) Chip
The conventional techniques to detect circulating tumour cells (CTCs) are lengthy and the use of centrifugal forces in this technique may cause cell mortality. As the number of CTCs in patients is quite low, t...
