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
2 new Actin and Tubulin live cell imaging stains - without transfection!
Cytoskeletal live cell imaging is extremely powerful when investigating cellular processes such as cytokinesis, motility and organelle transport and organization. The current experimental procedures
Gateway® cloning technology: Is it as easy as they say?
Molecular biology experts have been telling us for a while that the Gateway® cloning vectors are easy-to-use, saving them significant time and effort.
Basically, the technology allows you to start with
The TRPV1 Pain Receptor activates T cells
The Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) ion channel family participates in numerous functions of the Nervous System. A recent publication tends to indicate that TRP might also be of interest for therapeutical
3 Reasons to use fresh TLR9 agonists
As part of the innate immune response, Toll-like receptor 9 recognizes unmethylated CpG nucleotide sequences, which are very common in viruses and prokaryotes and more rare in vetebrates. Scientists
Actin staining techniques in fixed and living cells
Actin can be stained in living and fixed cells to determine and follow the structure and function of the cytoskeleton. The actin cytoskeleton is a very dynamic and labile structure in the living cell,
Antibiotics and microbial metabolites - revisited
What are metabolites?
Microorganisms live in a world of chemical signals. They use small molecular weight compounds, known as metabolites, to regulate their own growth and development, to encourage other
PGE2 role in carcinoma chemoresistance via CSC repopulation
The involvement of Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in cancer development has already been described (see the post "Tumour microenvironment – the dark side of PGE2). Recently, Kurtova et al. confirmed this
Genome Editing in Stem Cells: outsource or do-it-yourself?
Many researchers are facing a dilemma: they want to set up a CRISPR genome editing project but they can't decide which cell line to use for genome editing. Even some of the most cost-effective genome editing
