Is it legal to donate human organs and samples to science?
Over the years, people have started to understand the need for science to get materials to learn and progress. Materials include not only medical tools, but also biological ones.
Many people still ignore
Southern - Northern - Western Blot : what is the difference?
In the field of molecular biology, different blotting techniques are used to detect, identify and quantify the presence of a specific protein or to identify nucleic acid sequences.
Blotting refers to the
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
Choosing the Right Assay for PARP
Studying PARP family members is a high priority in cancer drug development
Are you keen to study PARP (Poly-ADP Ribose Polymerase) enzymatic activity, DNA trapping or PARP degradation? Then you've
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
New cancer treatment may reawaken the immune system
Cancer is a disease caused by abnormal cell growth. The cells’ genetic material is corrupted and the metabolic processes do not interact well with them anymore. They grow unchecked, mostly in the form
How to select a good CRO company?
When it comes to clinical research, certain necessary functions may be managed by an outsourced partner, such as a central laboratory or a contract research organisation.
As the drug discovery process
What is the future of mRNA based therapeutics, and their main challenges?
mRNA is a ribonucleic acid used by cells as an intermediate carrier of the genetic information contained in the DNA to synthesize proteins, and corresponds to the copy of one of the two strands of DNA.
Senescent cells prevent muscle regeneration
Senescence atlas reveals an aged-like inflamed niche that blunts muscle regeneration
Â
In their latest publication in Nature, Dr. Moiseeva et.al., studied cellular senescence in skeletal muscle, carrying
Why are certain drugs called enzyme inhibitors?
Our bodies’ normal functioning relies on chemical reactions (for instance, the conversion of food into energy or the replenishment of cells in tissue, like in muscles or organs). These biochemical reactions
How can CRISPR/Cas9 be used to edit genomes?
Genes are key components of our lives. With many other factors, they contribute to shaping us, making people and any other living organism what they are. Genomes, whether human or not, are able to evolve
Interferon: Long-Term Side Effects
Interferons (abbreviated IFN) are glycoproteins of the cytokine family (signalling molecules controlling the immune system). They were discovered in 1957 by Isaacs and Lindenmann, who noticed that chicken
