supporting information; experimental part, p. 4367 - 4369 (2011/06/20)
"Turn-on" FRET-based luminescent probes containing iridium(iii) complexes for the detection of Cys and Hcy have been designed and synthesized. The relationship between the steric bulk of the probe and the corresponding emission intensity enhancement towards detection of Cys and Hcy has been studied.
Compositions and methods for enhancing phagocytosis or phagocyte activity

Page/Page column sheet 12; 37, (2008/06/13)
The present invention provides a system for enhancing clearance or destruction of undesirable cells or noncellular molecular entities by tagging such cells or noncellular molecular entities with a marker that targets the cells or noncellular molecular entities for phagocytosis (phagocytic marker). The target cells can be, for example, endothelial cells, tumor cells, leukocytes, or virus-infected cells. In certain embodiments of the invention the tagging is accomplished by administering a composition comprising an antibody or ligand linked to the phagcytotic marker, wherein the antibody or ligand binds to a cell type specific marker present on or in the cell surface of a target cell. In preferred embodiments of the invention, the phagocytic marker comprises phosphatidylserine or a group derived from phosphatidylserine, thrombospondin-1, annexin I, or a derivative of any of these.
