Insulin and Glucagon are involved in glucose homeostasis in addition to other factors secreted by the adipose tissue (adipokines). Insulin and Glucagon are produced by the endocrine pancreas. While
10 most popular antibodies in neuroscience research
Analysis of neuronal cell fates and biological activities sometimes relies on the effective staining of a protein of interest (a.k.a. marker) with a specific primary antibody validated for immuno-assays.
Human Islets for Research - Which factors affect their quality?
The islets of Langerhans are the regions of the pancreas that contain its endocrine (i.e., hormone-producing) cells. Discovered in 1869 by German pathological anatomist Paul Langerhans, the islets of Langerhans
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.
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.
