G-quadruplex is a non-canonical nucleic acid structure formed by the folding of guanine rich DNA or RNA. The conformation and function of G-quadruplex are determined by a number of factors, including the number and polarity of nucleotide strands, the type of cations and the binding targets. Recent studies led to the discovery of additional advantag...

In age-related macular degeneration, the retinal pigment epithelium can be damaged by light acting on photosensitizers like N-retinylidene-N-retinylethanolamine (A2E). In this paper, the underlying cellular mechanism of lesion at the cell layer scale is analyzed by impedance spectroscopy. Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells are cultured on top o...

Bioengineering solutions to human space travel must consider microgravity as an important component. Thus, one of the fundamental challenges of space bioengineering is to create cellular microgravity responsive device, which integrate microgravity as a signal within biochemical and cellular processes. Here, we designed, fabricated and characterized...

DNA methylation at the 5-position of cytosine bases (5-methylcytosine, 5mC) in genomic DNA is representative epigenetic modification and is involved in many cellular processes, including gene expression and embryonic development. The hydroxylation of 5mC provide 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), the so-called sixth base rediscovered recently in mamma...

A new method based on the competitive reaction of ascorbic acid (AA) was used to improving the performance of photoelectrochemical glucose enzyme sensor. In this method, amplifying the photoelectric signal of H2O2 by the competitive reaction of AA is the key step. The detection can be well operated at 0 V under optimal AA concentration of 10 mM. In...
