Activation & de-activation pathways of hepatic fibrosis
3 fluorogenic substrates for iPS and Stem cells analysis
Methods commonly used for the characterization of iPS or ES cells are based on specific antibody staining. Nevertheless, undifferentiated stem cell populations can also be characterized by high levels

6 tips for thawing hepatocytes
Cryopreserved hepatocytes contain the major hepatic drug-metabolizing enzymes required to study the four categories of xenobiotic biotransformation: hydrolysis, reduction, oxidation and conjugation. Cryopreserved
PARP and Top1 inhibitors most beneficial in endonuclease-deficient cancer cells

Distinctions between homogeneous bulk cancer cell tumors vs. Cancer Stem cell driven tumors by Pr. Clarke
Professor Alan Clarke, (Director of the European Cancer Stem Cell Research Institute) has recently given an overview of how Cancer Stem cell tumors differ from the conventional "homogenous bulk cancer
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
Actin-Binding Proteins (ABPs) review
Actin filaments are essential for cytoskeleton functions (cell morphology, endocytosis and trafficking, contractility, motility...). In eukaryotic cells, polymerization and depolymerization of actin
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
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
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
