Cytokines and growth factors in Angiogenesis
Angiogenesis is the growth process of new blood vessels from pre-existing one's. It's a normal physiological process, observed during embryonic development. But it's also a pathological process, essentially
microRNAs: Finding the effector - miRNA detection
Following on from my previous post in which I started to introduce a series of techniques to investigate the impact of miRNA expression on cell fate,
microRNAs: Push and observe - miRNA overexpression
In this third post of the miRNA-related series, let's take a look at miRNA overexpression.
miRNA mimics
Short RNAs are very prone to enzymatic degradation. Novel chemical technologies now
Proteasome inhibitor approved by FDA for Myeloma retreatment
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Velcade (Bortezomib) for the retreatment of adult patients with Multiple Myeloma who had previously responded to Velcade therapy and relapsed at
microRNAs: Inhibiting the inhibitors - Antagomirs
Following on in our series on microRNAs (miRNA - Keys to open cell biology’s secret chamber)
microRNAs: Target detection
Leading on from my previous posts (see below) exploring microRNA detection, overexpression and inhibition, this time, let's spend a moment on target detection.
miTarget databases
Antibody pairs - the rebirth of a classic
Antibody pairs have been used for years to detect biomarkers in biological samples. They are a convenient and price-wise alternative to ready-to-use ELISAs, especially when they are used on a routine basis
Focus on the Hypoxia Regulation Mechanism
The cellular and physiological effects resulting from hypoxia-dependent networks have been clearly shown to impact a number of human pathological states, including ischemic disease, diabetes, pulmonary
Where to buy Topo inhibitors and analogs?
DNA topoisomerase I and DNA topoisomerase II (Topo I and Topo II) are nuclear enzymes which regulate the topological state of the DNA helix by transiently breaking and rejoining DNA strands. They also
Tumour microenvironment - glioblastoma
Factors released by tumour cells can have an impact on the outcome of cancer in a patient, and they can be used as diagnostic or prognostic biomarkers. A deeper study on the tumour microenviroment (TME)
5 Cytoskeletal Modeling Molecules
Cytoskeleton modeling molecules are relevant when trying to improve one's understanding of cytoskeletal molecular modeling and associated mechanisms. Together with actin binding proteins, tubulin-based
