CBR-5884 - a Serine biosynthesis inhibitor for cancer research
Metabolic pathways are upregulated in cancer cells to promote their growth and proliferation. The evidence pointing to the requirement of the amino acid serine in tumorigenesis is overwhelming. Serine
Microbial K-Ras Inhibitors
Small molecules known to modulate biological activies of the K-Ras oncogene are predominantly of synthetic origin (ex. Salirasib). Nevetheless, various publications have recently demontrated the biological
How to activate or inhibit autophagy?
The term Autophagy was introduced by Christian de Duve during the Ciba Foundation Symposium on Lysosomes – which was held in London in February 1963. In 1974 he was honoured with the Nobel price in
Stauprimide inhibits c-myc transcription in cancer cells
Stauprimide is known to prime Embryonic Stem Cells (ESC) by targeting the c-Myc-activating transcription factor NME2. Its mechanism of action is linked to the inhibition of the nuclear localization of
Pluripotent stem cells for improved reprogrammed Human Sebocytes
Following the start of our recent collaboration with Phenocell, we’re pleased to be able to provide high quality Sebocytes developed from Human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC). Thanks to a perfectly
Bioactive neuronal lipid mediators: a focus on Synaptamide
Focus Biomolecules produces a broad range of bioactive lipid mediators as well as many small molecule inhibitors of numerous lipid metabolic pathways for use as cellular probes. These can be supplied
GPR17 and Remyelination: activators and antagonists
The absence of mature oligodendrocytes for the repair of demyelination lesions is a critical factor in the pathology of Multiple Sclerosis (MS), and other debilitating CNS disorders of myelination. As
Pluripotent Stem Cells and iPSC Research: Quality and Innovative Products
Since the discovery of reprogramming factors in 2006 and the boom of CRISPR gene editing strategies, induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) have emerged as new cellular models. The development of 3D cell
Reprogramming stem cells: a new innovative technology for the development of consistent and functional human cells
To overcome current cell model limitations, bit.bio have developed a new, innovative technology to reprogram human stem cells with precise control of transcription factor expression through iPSC engineering.
Immunotherapy for breast cancer: Types and effectiveness
Our body is made up of trillions of cells grouped together to form tissues and organs. The genes present in the nucleus of every cell tell it when to grow, work, divide and die.
Normally, our cells follow
CRO & Drug Discovery
In medicine, biotech and pharmacology, drug discovery is the entire process to discover new candidate medications.
The process is long and complex, the budget needed is expansive and the skills required
