Use of spherical nucleic acid nanoconjugates to accelerate closure of diabetic wounds
NIH Director's Wednesday Afternoon Lecture Series
The Paller lab studies the role of gangliosides (sphingolipids), which regulate lipid raft-based signaling, in skin, particularly in diabetic wound healing and skin cancer. The lab uses DNA- and RNA-nanoconjugates as topical gene therapy to treat diabetic ulcers, psoriasis, skin cancer and other skin overgrowth disorders, and rare genetic skin problems. Dr. Paller is the PI of Northwestern's Skin Disease Research Center, which includes 3 Cores dedicated to providing service to researchers of skin biology. As a pediatric dermatologist, Dr. Paller specializes in genetic (esp...

Nanotechnology: Multifunctional Smart Nanoparticles Measure Previously Invisible Diagnostic Analytes
Proteomics Interest Group
A critical need within the biomedical research sector is the identification and reliable clinical measurement of novel low abundance biomarkers that are predictive of early stage diseases such as cancer, or that correlate with therapeutic outcome or toxicity. Unresolved challenges in the biomarker discovery and measurement field are 1) Early disease biomarkers exist in body fluids at a concentration below the detection limit of biomarker discovery and measurement platforms, 2) Proteins and peptides are masked by billion fold excess quantities of resident proteins such as immunoglobulin and albumi...
