Abstract
Candida albicans (C. albicans) infection is a potential complication in the individuals with atopic dermatitis (AD) and can affect clinical course of the disease. Here, using primary keratinocytes we determined that atopic milieu promotes changes in the interaction of small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) with dendritic cells and that this is further enhanced by the presence of C. albicans. sEV uptake is largely dependent on the expression of glycans on their surface; modelling of the protein interactions indicated that recognition of this pathogen through C. albicans-relevant pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) is linked to several glycosylation enzymes which may in turn affect the expression of sEV glycans. Here, significant changes in the surface glycosylation pattern, as determined by lectin array, could be observed in sEVs upon a combined exposure of keratinocytes to AD cytokines and C. albicans. This included enhanced expression of multiple types of glycans, for which several dendritic cell receptors could be proposed as binding partners. Blocking experiments showed predominant involvement of the inhibitory Siglec-7 and -9 receptors in the sEV-cell interaction and the engagement of sialic acid-containing carbohydrate moieties on the surface of sEVs. This pointed on ST6 β-Galactoside α-2,6-Sialyltransferase 1 (ST6GAL1) and Core 1 β,3-Galactosyltransferase 1 (C1GALT1) as potential enzymes involved in the process of remodelling of the sEV surface glycans upon C. albicans exposure. Our results suggest that, in combination with atopic dermatitis milieu, C. albicans promotes alterations in the glycosylation pattern of keratinocyte-derived sEVs to interact with inhibitory Siglecs on antigen presenting cells. Hence, a strategy aiming at this pathway to enhance antifungal responses and restrict pathogen spread could offer novel therapeutic options for skin candidiasis in AD.

Abstract
We present an observation of depolarized scattering by silver colloids. The profile of the wavelength-dependent anisotropy of the colloidal solution of silver nanoparticles traces the plasmonic extinction spectrum. The scattering component of the colloid extinction spectrum is responsible for the depolarization effect. We believe that the presence of the orthogonal component in the silver colloid scattering can be used in dye-less sensing devices.

Abstract
We studied one- and two-photon induced fluorescence of Pacific Blue (PB)-labeled human serum albumin (HSA) in the presence of different size silver colloids. The PB fluorescence emission intensity was observed with small (30-40 nm) and large (about 120 nm) colloids and compared with PB emission in absence of colloids. For the system with a small core size colloids we did not detect any fluorescence enhancement with one-photon excitation and the enhancement observed with two-photon excitation was about 2.5-fold. In contrast, for large silver colloids we observed about a 2-fold increase in PB fluorescence brightness for one-photon excitation, and the enhancement with two-photon excitation excided 13-folds. Much stronger increases in brightness observed with two-photon excitation, compared to one-photon excitation, indicate a dominant role of enhanced local field in fluorescence enhancement on silver colloids in solutions.

Abstract
We present a new approach for performing fluorescence immunoassay in whole blood using fluorescently labeled anti-rabbit immunoglobulin G (IgG) on a silver surface. This approach, which is based on surface plasmon-coupled emission (SPCE), provides increased sensitivity and substantial background reduction due to exclusive selection of the signal from the fluorophores located near a bioaffinity surface. This article describes the effect of an optically dense sample matrix, namely human whole blood and serum, on the intensity of the SPCE. An antigen (rabbit IgG) was adsorbed to a slide covered with a thin silver metal layer, and the SPCE signal from the fluorophore-labeled anti-rabbit antibody, binding to the immobilized antigen, was detected. The effect of the sample matrix (buffer, human serum, or human whole blood) on the end-point immunoassay SPCE signal was studied. It was demonstrated that the kinetics of binding could be monitored directly in whole blood or serum. The results showed that human serum and human whole blood attenuate the SPCE end-point signal and the immunoassay kinetic signal only approximately two- and threefold, respectively, as compared with buffer, resulting in signals that are easily detectable even in whole blood. The high optical absorption of the hemoglobin can be tolerated because only fluorophores within a couple of hundred nanometers from the metallic film contribute to SPCE. Excited fluorophores outside the 200-nm layer do not contribute to SPCE, and their free space emission is not transmitted through the opaque metallic film into the glass substrate. We believe that SPCE has the potential of becoming a powerful approach for performing immunoassays based on surface-bound analytes or antibodies for many biomarkers directly in dense samples such as whole blood with no need for washing steps.

Abstract
The interaction of the isolated EF-hand domain of phospholipase C delta1 with arachidonic acid (AA) was characterized using circular dichroism (CD) and fluorescence spectroscopy. The far-UV CD spectral changes indicate that AA binds to the EF domain. The near-UV CD spectra suggest that the orientations of aromatic residues in the peptide are affected when AA binds to the protein. The fluorescence of the single intrinsic tryptophan located in EF1 was enhanced by the addition of dodecylmaltoside (DDM) and AA suggesting that this region of the protein is involved in hydrophobic interactions. In the presence of a low concentration of DDM it was found that AA induced a change in fluorescence resonance energy transfer, which is indicative of a conformational change. The lipid induced conformational change may play a role in calcium binding because the isolated EF-hand domain did not bind Ca2+ in the absence of lipids, but Ca2+-dependent changes in the intrinsic tryptophan emission were observed when free fatty acids were present. These studies identify specific EF-hand domains as allosteric regulatory domains that require hydrophobic ligands such as lipids.

Abstract
We report the observation of a strong two-photon induced fluorescence emission of Cy5-DNA within the tunable range of a Ti:Sapphire laser. The estimated two-photon cross-section for Cy5-DNA of 400GM is about 3.5-fold higher than it was reported for rhodamine B. The fundamental anisotropies of Cy5-DNA are close to the theoretical limits of 2/5 and 4/7 for one- and two-photon excitation, respectively. We also observed an enhanced two-photon induced fluorescence (TPIF) of Cy5-DNA deposited on silver island films (SIFs). In the presence of SIFs, the TPIF is about 100-fold brighter. The brightness increase of Cy5-DNA TPIF near SIFs is mostly due to enhanced local field.

Abstract
We studied fluorescence enhancements of fluorescein tethered to silver colloids of different size. Thiolated 23-mer oligonucleotide (ss DNA-SH) was bound selectively to silver colloids deposited on 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APS)-treated quartz slides. Fluorescein-labeled complementary oligonucleotide (ss Fl-DNA) was added in an amount significantly lower than the amount of unlabeled DNA tethered to the colloids. The hybridization kinetics, observed as an increase in fluorescence emission, on small (30-40 nm) and large (> 120 nm) colloids were similar. However, the final fluorescence intensity of the sample with large colloids was about 50% higher than that observed for the sample with small colloids. The reference sample without ss DNA-SH was used to estimate the fluorescence enhancements of fluorescein tethered to the small colloids (E = 2.7) and to the large colloids (E = 4.1) due to its steady fluorescence signal. The proposed method, based on controlled hybridization with minimal amount of fluorophore labeled ss DNA, can be used to reliably estimate the fluorescence enhancements on any silver nanostructures.

Abstract
We report an observation of ultraviolet (UV) surface plasmon-coupled emission (SPCE) of N-acetyl-l-tryptophanamide (NATA). The sample was spin coated from poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) solution on 20 nm aluminum film deposited on a quartz substrate. The directional UV SPCE occurs within a well-defined narrow angle at 52 degrees from the normal to the coupling hemicylinder quartz prism. The NATA directional emission is highly p polarized as expected for surface plasmon-coupled radiation. The 10 nm protective SiO2 layer deposited on top of the aluminum film significantly neutralized the fluorophore quenching by the metal surface. SPCE of NATA demonstrates a remarkable intrinsic dispersive property-the maximum of the emission spectrum depends on the observation angle. The efficient spectral resolution of SPCE can be used in the construction of miniaturized spectrofluorometers. The observation of SPCE of tryptophan opens a new possibility for the study of many unlabeled proteins with the technique complementary to surface plasmon resonance analysis.

Abstract
We observed a strong, more than 16-fold, enhancement of Texas Red-labeled BSA fluorescence emission when deposited on silver colloid coated surfaces (SCCS). The same labeled protein deposited on silver island films (SIFs) showed an approximate 8-fold fluorescence enhancement. The lifetimes of Texas Red-BSA fluorescence are significantly shorter on silvered surfaces than on uncoated quartz substrate indicating a strong change in radiative decay rate of the dyes. We also observed a 36-fold increased brightness of overlabeled fluorescein-HSA deposited on silver colloid coated surface. Stronger enhancement observed for overlabeled Fl-HSA protein indicates that presence of silver particles partially decreased self-quenching. Our results indicate that surfaces coated with silver colloids are valuable substrates for metal-enhanced fluorescence.

Abstract
We report recent achievements in metal-enhanced fluorescence from our laboratory. Several fluorophore systems have been studied on metal particle-coated surfaces and in colloid suspensions. In particular, we describe a distance dependent enhancement on silver island films (SIFs), release of self-quenching of fluorescence near silver particles, and the applications of fluorescence enhancement near metalized surfaces to bioassays. We discuss a number of methods for various shaped silver particle deposition on surfaces.
