Cellular program could turn T cells into effective cancer killers
Over the past decades, and thanks to many specialised scientists and the support from the National Cancer Institute, cancer research has made some impressive advances.
Our body is amazing; it can
ELISA : Quality Control and Performance Evaluation
The ELISA test (acronym of Enzyme Linked ImmunoSorbent Assay) is a test principally used In immunology to detect and/or assay a protein, antigen or antibody in a biological fluid sample . It has many practical
What type of Biological molecule is a DNA helicase?
There are several thousand types of different molecules in each cell (with some exceptions). These molecules are constantly changing and renewing themselves. Most of these molecules have a complex chemical
How are biomarkers used in the medical field?
If you search on the internet the words “biological markers” or “biomarkers”, numerous results appear on your screen. These biomarkers, used in various fields including ecology, eco-toxicology and medical
Southern - Northern - Western Blot : what is the difference?
In the field of molecular biology, different blotting techniques are used to detect, identify and quantify the presence of a specific protein or to identify nucleic acid sequences.
Blotting refers
Immunotherapy for breast cancer: Types and effectiveness
Our body is made up of trillions of cells grouped together to form tissues and organs. The genes present in the nucleus of every cell tell it when to grow, work, divide and die.
Normally, our cells
New cancer treatment may reawaken the immune system
Cancer is a disease caused by abnormal cell growth. The cells’ genetic material is corrupted and the metabolic processes do not interact well with them anymore. They grow unchecked, mostly in the form
Senescent cells prevent muscle regeneration
Senescence atlas reveals an aged-like inflamed niche that blunts muscle regeneration
In their latest publication in Nature, Dr. Moiseeva et.al., studied cellular senescence in skeletal
Interferon: Long-Term Side Effects
Interferons (abbreviated IFN) are glycoproteins of the cytokine family (signalling molecules controlling the immune system). They were discovered in 1957 by Isaacs and Lindenmann, who noticed
Why replace fluorescent markers with lanthanide nanoparticles to improve detection?
According to the WHO (World Health Organization), early diagnosis of diseases is one of the key factors in the world to save lives and reduce the cost of treatment. Faced with these recommendations, in
Peptide applications in biomedicine - harnessing Nanotechnology power
Peptide advances in biomedicine
Peptides, which are short chains of amino acids, have gained significant attention in biomedicine due to their diverse applications. Their unique properties, such
