Abstract: A submicron structure includes a silica body defining a plurality of pores that are suitable to receive molecules therein, the silica body further defining an outer surface between pore openings of said plurality of pores; and a plurality of anionic molecules attached to the outer surface of the silica body. The anionic molecules provide hydrophilicity to the submicron structure and are suitable to provide repulsion between other similar submicron structures, and the submicron structure has a maximum dimension less than one micron.

Abstract: A nanodevice has a containment vessel defining a storage chamber therein and defining at least one port to provide transfer of molecules to or from the storage chamber, and a plurality of impellers attached to the containment vessel. The plurality of impellers are of a structure and are arranged to substantially block molecules from entering and exiting the storage chamber of the containment vessel when the impellers are static and are operable to impart motion to the molecules to cause the molecules to at least one of enter into or exit from the storage chamber of the containment vessel.

Abstract: The present invention relates, for example, to a liposome, which can be a basic liposome, a transferrin-conjugated liposome, or a pH-sensitive liposome, which encapsulates a compound that specifically inhibits the activity of a protein prenyltransferase, such as a RabGGTase and/or a GGTase I. The liposomes can be used as anti-cancer therapeutics including as part of methods for treating cancer, in assays, and in kits.

Abstract: A nanodevice has a containment vessel defining a storage chamber therein and defining at least one port to provide access to and from said storage chamber, and a stopper assembly attached to the containment vessel. The stopper assembly has a blocking unit arranged proximate the at least one port and has a structure suitable to substantially prevent material after being loaded into the storage chamber from being released while the blocking unit is arranged in a blocking configuration. The stopper assembly is responsive to the presence of a predetermined stimulus such that the blocking unit is released in the presence of the predetermined stimulus to allow the material to be released from the storage chamber. The predetermined stimulus is a predetermined catalytic activity that is suitable to at least one of cleave, hydrolyze, oxidize, or reduce a portion of the stopper assembly, and the nanodevice has a maximum dimension of about 1 ?m.
