How to measure Calcium in cell based assays?
In Pharma screening departments there is a strong need for Ca2+ measurement methods.
Why is this?
GPCRs (G Protein Coupled Receptors) are still major targets of pharmaceutical screenings.
Around 30-40%
Immunogenicity in biotherapeutics and biosimilars
Following on from my previous post on biosimilars and biotherapeutics (or biologics), let's now take a look at some of the specific criteria for this kind of compound, which are not normally required
Cytokines and growth factors in Bone biology
Bones are rigid organs that constitute part of the endoskeleton of vertebrates. They support and protect the various organs of the body, produce red and white blood cells and store
Proteasome inhibitor approved by FDA for Myeloma retreatment
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Velcade (Bortezomib) for the retreatment of adult patients with Multiple Myeloma who had previously responded to Velcade therapy and relapsed
EndoG and ATM cell cycle checkpoint in Leukemogenesis
In a recent publication, Gole B. and Baumann C. demonstrate the role of the apoptotic nuclease EndoG in Mixed-Lineage Leukemia breakpoint cluster region (MLLbcr) destabilisation leading to MLL gene
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 efficiently maintain
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 that
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 a custom culture system with HyStem, simple pilot studies or optimization
5 Cytoskeletal Modeling Molecules
Cytoskeleton modeling molecules are relevant when trying to improve one's understanding of cytoskeletal molecular modeling and associated mechanisms. Together with actin binding proteins, tubulin-based
15 Ubiquitin - Proteasome inhibitors for cancer research
With more than 100 types of cancers affecting any part of the body, cancer is one of the leading causes of death in the world. It has an enormous impact on well-being, both for those with the diagnosis
