One of the hottest news last month was the high resolution structure of the TRPA1 ion channel protein.

Dengue Virus (DenV) is transmitted by mosquito vectors. It infects 50-100 million people each year and is at the origin of Dengue Fever and the more lethal Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) and Shock Syndrome

The World Health Organization (WHO) estimated in 2008 that 1.4 billion adults worldwide were overweight and of these 500 million were obese with risks for developing type 2 diabetes, hypertension and cardio-vascular

Today, following our series on Tumour Microenvironment (TME), and leading on from three recent publications, let's discuss Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs).

CSCs are part of the TME, as they reside in

Diabetes is a major health concern. And its research can be a nightmare sometimes. tebu-bio strive to offer a comprehensive range of research tools and services to study Obesity, Diabetes, and Metabolic

Cord blood might be a much-needed solution. 

Few diseases stump researchers as much as Alzheimer’s disease. Quite simply, nothing has worked beyond some symptomatic relief. On top of that, scientists

Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors (PPARs) are ligand-activated transcription factors of the Nuclear Receptor superfamily. PPAR active compounds are of significant interest in multiple pharmaceutical

Microtubules are key components of the cytoskeletal structure of eukaryotic cells. Composed of alpha- and beta- tubulin sub-units, microtubules are dynamic entities

Isolation of highly purified untagged proteins is crucial in today's R&D programs. Up to now, recombinant protein production approaches were often based on the use of "tags" to make protein purification

Ion channels play an important role in perception and transmission of pain sensations. Furthermore, dysfunctions of certain ion channels are involved in neuronal disorders, such as epilepsy, Alzheimer's
