Keep cool... corticosterone and stress
Corticosterone is a glucocorticoid secreted by the cortex of the adrenal gland in response to stimulation by adrenocorticotropic hormone. Corticosterone is a major indicator of stress in non-human mammals.
Why is the hCMEC/D3 cell line a robust in vitro BBB model?
The Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB) affects the development of drugs for all pathologies (brain exposure to drugs, side effects...). In the early phases of drug development, there is a strong need for stable
Next generation RIPA buffer: a new kit for Lipid Raft
RIPA buffer is one of the most useful protein extraction buffers and maintains most native structures of proteins. Nevertheless, RIPA buffer is not convenient enough to extract membrane proteins and membrane-associated
5 multicolour flow cytometry reagents for immunophenotyping
Multicolour fluorochrome reagents have spurred researchers' capacity to analyze cell populations and to isolate cell subsets by flow cytometry. In this post, let's take at look at the advantages of
2 new validated anti-PGP 9.5 antibodies for neuroscience research
Protein Gene Product 9.5 (PGP 9.5) is an abundant cytoplasmic neuron and neuroendocrine-cell specific protein. Over the years, this deubiquitinating enzyme (a.k.a. Ubiquitin Carboxy-terminal Hydrolase
New Zika virus monoclonal antibodies
Abnova offer a series of new monoclonal research antibodies to support the study of the Zika virus. These are available through tebu-bio across Europe. Let's take a look at these monoclonals,
New: Nipah Virus G Protein and antibodies for developing specific NiV ELISA test
Nipah Virus Infection (NiV) is an emerging infectious disease of public health importance in the South-East Asia Region (source: World Health Organization). Along with Hendra virus (HeV), NiV is part
DDI studies: New TransiPort cells for OATP1A2 and OATP2B1 transporters
Membrane transporters can have clinically relevant effects on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of a drug in various organs and tissues by controlling its absorption, distribution and elimination.
Lympholyte®: The ideal tool for simple and viable lymphocytes isolation
High quality isolation of lymphocytes is a key step in many in vitro research programs covering immunology, infectious diseases and oncology. To simplify this step, CEDARLANE® have developed an efficient
Fully licensed SLC cell lines for FDA and EMA recommended transporters
In a previous post, we introduced our Ready-to-use cellular models for SLC assays by GenoMembrane.
These cell lines transiently express the current FDA and EMA recommended SLC drug transporters (eg.
