How is Amylo-Glo a brighter, longer lasting and higher definition Amyloid plaque marker?
In a previous post I discussed 3 new unique research tools for analyzing Amyloid peptide in Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). Today, I'd like to come back to the unique properties of the Amylo-Glo® fluorescent
ChAT+ neurons and neurogenesis by Paez-Gonzalez et al. (Duke University)
Paez-Gonzalez et al. (Duke University) have discovered a new population of choline acetyltransferase (ChAT)+ neurons present in the rodent subventricular zone (SVZ). (1) This niche is known
Recent advances in Stem Cell culture: Encapsulated Stembeads growth factors
During my daily discussions with researchers involved in in vitro iPS and Embryonic Stem cell cultures, I am always amazed by the passion that drives them. However, the more I go in depth with them in
Specific cytokines & growth factors in... neurobiology!
Neurobiology is the study of cells of the nervous system and their organization into functional circuits that process information and mediate behavior.
Neurotrophic factors
Neurotrophic factors are
HSCI's researchers switch skin cells into pain-sensing neurons
In a recent publication, Dr Clifford J. Woolf's
Fluorescent ShK toxin for Kv1.3 ion channels
Kv1.3 channels are expressed in T-cell lymphocytes and over-expressed in autoimmune diseases. They can be see as a therapeutic taget for T cell mediated autoimmune diseases.
ShK toxin (Stichodactyla helianthus
Don't miss any neurotrophin!
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
Cell counting made easy!
After you've read this post, I hope that you'll agree that what the title of the post announces is the right assumption. How? Read on!
I invite you to take a look at Cyto-X, which is a ready-for-use
Get your ELISA results before lunch!
ELISAs are widely used in biomarker-related studies, especially when a high number of samples is involved, and only a few biomarkers need to be quantified. That said, incubations can be somehow cumbersome,
Neuroregenerative effects of microtubule stabilizing Epothilone B
Epothilone B is a bioactive microtubule-stabilizing small molecule. This blood-brain barrier permeable coumpound belongs to the most popular potent cytoskeletal modeling molecules for in vitro cell based
High resolution structure of the TRPA1 channel protein
One of the hottest news last month was the high resolution structure of the TRPA1 ion channel protein.
Pharmacological agents which alleviate Pain
Chronic pain of varying types including inflammatory pain, cancer pain and neuropathic pain is an increasing health problem for which there are inadequate therapeutic options.
