DNA methylation and histone post-translational modifications are key epigenetic factors.

They regulate gene expression by interfering with the chromatin structure and the binding of effector proteins

The authors have investigated the role Toll-Like Receptor 9 (TLR9) in host defense during Pseudomonas aeruginosa lung infection.

This team showed the inhibitory effects of TLR9 on innate immune response

It is widely accepted that data obtained from primary cells is not only desired, but, most relevant when trying to study physiological interactions. Experimentation in primary cells allows a deeper and

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression and influence numerous cellular functions. Together with mature RNAs and small molecules, mature miRNAs can induce forced reprogramming

An interesting poster has recently been published by XenoTech: "Selection of Human Liver S9 and Cytosol Fractions for Evaluating Clearance by Aldehyde Oxidase (AO): The Impact of Low Versus High AO Activity

The Notch signaling pathway plays a vital role in the regulation of asymmetric cell division, cell fate specification and proliferation. Mammals possess 4 different Notch receptors, referred to as Notch1,

The availability of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from healthy individuals and from patients with various diseases allows for many studies on normal and abnormal functions of human immune

Methods commonly used for the characterization of iPS or ES cells are based on specific antibody staining. Nevertheless, undifferentiated stem cell populations can also be characterized by high levels
