22. Delivery of gene-regulating agents : internalization mechanisms and novel vectors
Abstract : The sequencing of the human genome was expected to generate a veritable explosion of therapeutics for regulation of gene function, either through modulation of gene expression or through the replacement of defect genes. However, nucleic acid-based pharmacological agents suffer from issues of low bioavailability and unfavorable pharmacokinetics, wherefore these prospects have not yet been realized. READ MORE

23. The Neurological Wake-up Test in Neurocritical Care
Abstract : The neurological wake-up test, NWT, is a clinical monitoring tool that can be used to evaluate the level of consciousness in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) during neurocritical care (NCC). Since patients with severe TBI or SAH are often treated with mechanical ventilation and sedation, the NWT requires that the continuous sedation is interrupted. READ MORE

24. Cell-penetrating peptides for oligonucleotide delivery : Design and uptake mechanisms
Abstract : The use of oligonucleotides for gene therapy has the potential to efficiently treat a plethora of diseases with minimal side effects. However, the use of oligonucleotides is hampered by the properties of these molecules, which make it essentially impossible for them to permeate the cellular membrane. READ MORE

25. Aspects on the use of slowly degradable mesh in inguinal hernia surgery
Abstract : Background: Synthetic non-degradable mesh used in inguinal hernia surgery can cause chronic inflammation, which in turn can lead to chronic post-operative pain (CPP). Theoretically, a degradable mesh could reduce the risk of chronic pain. READ MORE
