Cancer research is increasingly focusing on the tumour microenvironment (TME). Several studies have shown that tumours depend on external signals for maintenance and expansion. It is therefore needed to

The zebrafish (Danio rerio) is a common vertebrate model organism in scientific research for studying vertebrate development, gene function, and regenerative abilities. Interestingly, this convenient

We all react to external factors, even the most cold-blooded person. We might hide our emotions, but there they are.

The same happens in cancer. Cells (both the tumour cells and the normal ones)

ISG15 ubiquitin-like modifier (ISG15) functions intracellularly as a Ubiquitin homologue and a cytokine. ISG15 induces production of IFN-gamma and augments NK/lymphokine-activated killer cell proliferation

Neurotrophins are important biomarkers in Neurobiology, including stem cell development to neural lineages. BDNF and NGF are the ones being studied in most cases. However, it has been found that neurotrophins

Whatever the research domain (oncology, cardiovascular diseases, Diabetis/obesity, inflammation, autoimmune disorders...), phosphorylation study is essential when looking for activation of cell signaling

Stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy is an accurate process allowing super resolutive cell imaging. STED microscopy overcomes the limits of standard confocal laser scanning microscopes. In 2014,

The nucleosome core particle is the fundamental structural unit of the eukaryotic genome. It consists of a histone octamer composed of two H2A-H2B dimers and a H3-H4 tetramer wrapped by ~146 base pairs

Flow cytometry, even if somehow a "classical" technique, is still very valuable in Immunology. Uses of flow cytometry vary from cell identification & sorting based on membrane molecules, characterisation

Fibrinogen is the main protein of the blood coagulation system. It consists of two identical subunits that contain three polypeptide chains: alpha, beta and gamma. The process of blood coagulation results

Intracellular Flow Cytometry enables the identification and analysis of signaling and functional markers within cells from samples containing heterogeneous cell populations. Many cell types can be thus
