Godreau, José Caraballo, y Raymond Tremblay Descripción: The project Maintaining, Engaging, and Tracking Alumni in Science and Health Research or METAS+ is a three-year research project that aims to test a cost-effective coaching intervention that will prepare Latino undergraduates to complete their degrees and transition to graduate studies in biomedical and…
Lipid Dendrimers as a Convenient Strategy to Construct Nanoparticles for Drug-delivery Applications
Investigadores: Luis Negrón (PI) y Dalvin Méndez (Colaborador) Departamento: Química Descripción: The goal of this proposal is to develop an efficient method to prepare nanoparticles based on the use of small molecule lipid dendrimers which acts as monomeric subunits with self-assembly properties under a specific stimulus such as temperature and pH. Nanoparticles offer advantages in…
Función de H2S en superoxido de dismutasa y su implicación en la formación de fibrillas
Investigadora: Ruth Pietri Departamento: Química Descripción: Protein fibrils are large aggregates of misfolded proteins that are associated with several neurodegenerative diseases such as familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is a protein that forms fibrils, which has been implicated with ALS. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) can inhibit protein fibrils by reacting with disulfide…
