Sircol for soluble and insoluble collagen assays!
Measuring soluble collagen in biological samples is a straightforward experiment which can be done with the Sircol soluble collagen assay using Sirius Red dye (Sircol dye) in a convenient manner (we explored
Choose your complement!
The complement system helps the ability of antibodies and phagocytic cells to clear pathogens from an organism. It is part of the innate immune system that is not adaptable and does not change over the
Growth factors in cartilage biology and osteoarthritis
Cartilage is a flexible connective tissue which can rapidly grow and which is specialized to absorb and resist compression. The perichondrium, a vascularized layer, surrounds the tissue which does not
Activation of RhoA, Rac1 and Cdc42 - New G-LISA Trial kits
Small GTP-binding proteins such as RhoA, Rac1, and Cdc42 are involved in regulating cell signalling pathways and impact a wide range of cellular processes, functions, and morphology. They bind and hydrolyze
5 Cytoskeletal Modeling Molecules
Cytoskeleton modeling molecules are relevant when trying to improve one's understanding of cytoskeletal molecular modeling and associated mechanisms. Together with actin binding proteins, tubulin-based
15 Ubiquitin - Proteasome inhibitors for cancer research
With more than 100 types of cancers affecting any part of the body, cancer is one of the leading causes of death in the world. It has an enormous impact on well-being, both for those with the diagnosis
Tumor growth and metastasis monitored in vivo
In vivo monitoring of tumor growth and metastasis provides a powerful means for studying cancer properties and development of effective therapies. Mouse models created with tumor xenografts, resulting
miRNA mediates gene expression through HDL particles
A recent study published in Nature Communications is the first to report how a mature microRNA (miR-223) actively controls the gene expression of a cell in which it was not originally transcribed. High
Writing - Erasing - Reading Epigenetics: Targeting Erasers in Drug Discovery
DNA and Histone proteins are targets for epigenetic modifications.
One of the roles of Epigenetics is to drive cellular differentiation from totipotent Stem cells to fully differentiated cell types,
New tools to fight against Pneumococcus
Pneumococcus, or scientifically speaking, Streptococcus pneumoniae, is a pathogen responsible for a number of illnesses, including pneumonia, ear infections, sinus infections, meningitis and bacteremia.
