2 means to boost RNA-sequencing
RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq) bottlenecks start with library preparation! Is it possible to prepare a RNA-Seq library in a simple and fast way? And how to avoid the bottlenecks of current RNA-sequencing library
FAQs on feeder cells for optimal human iPSC culture
Human Newborn Foreskin Fibroblasts (NuFF cells) are genuine feeder cells for Stem cell research. Mitotically inactive NuFF cells (by irradiation or Mitomycin C chemical treatment) can
microRNAs: Target detection
Leading on from my previous posts (see below) exploring microRNA detection, overexpression and inhibition, this time, let's spend a moment on target detection.
miTarget databases
Antibody pairs - the rebirth of a classic
Antibody pairs have been used for years to detect biomarkers in biological samples. They are a convenient and price-wise alternative to ready-to-use ELISAs, especially when they are used on a routine basis
Focus on the Hypoxia Regulation Mechanism
The cellular and physiological effects resulting from hypoxia-dependent networks have been clearly shown to impact a number of human pathological states, including ischemic disease, diabetes, pulmonary
H3K4me3 Histone Demethylase Fbxl10 Activity Assay
The Histone Demethylase FBXL10 (also known as NDY1, KDM2B, or JHDM1B) has been reported to demethylate histone H3K4me3. By removing active Methyl Epigenetic marks on the chromatin, this "Epigenetic Eraser"
ATM or DNA-PKcs inhibitors synthetically lethal in BRCA- cells
Several lines of evidence show that synthetic lethal interactions targeting DNA repair pathways may have clinical applications in cancer therapy. In a recent paper, Albarakati et al. demonstrate
microRNAs: Portraying a cell - miRNA profiling
Well, in the previous posts leading up to this final one in the series, we looked at microRNA detection, overexpression, inhibition, and target detection. I'd like to finish by going over miRNA profiling.
Profiling of secretome biomarkers - pancreatic cancer
Following a post on tools for discovery of secretome biomarkers in biological samples, a recent publication by Torres et al. depicts how some of these tools (i.e. antibody arrays)
Where to buy Topo inhibitors and analogs?
DNA topoisomerase I and DNA topoisomerase II (Topo I and Topo II) are nuclear enzymes which regulate the topological state of the DNA helix by transiently breaking and rejoining DNA strands. They also
Tips for Optimizing Cell Culture Conditions with Hydrogels
In a previous post on Cellular Matrices for Translational Research, I introduced HyStem hydrogels. In order to engineer
How to probe motor-domains of kinesins?
In the past, molecular motor proteins like kinesins have been investigated with macromolecular approaches. Recent research on kinesins has been focused on resolving how kinesin is regulated by intramolecular
