Neuromuscular diseases: A new application for Statins?
Statins are HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, well-known medications for treating Hypercholesterolemia. Simvastatin is a member of this "Statin family" and controls
Rat liver tritosomes in the endosome-lysosome pathway
Rat liver tritosomes are hepatic lysosomes that have been loaded with Tyloxapol (Triton WR 1339), a non-ionic surfactant. Tyloxapol is taken up by hepatocytes through endocytosis and is trafficked to lysosomal
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.
Proteomic profiling tools for your neurobiology studies!
First at all, a quick reminder... Cytokines play important roles in inflammation, innate immunity, angiogenesis and cell growth. They are involved in a lot of disease processes
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
Rolipram slows tau accumulation and AD
Biomarkers of stemness
Stem Cells: a great tool for biomedical research! From the embryo at a very early stage of development, stem cells have two important capabilities: to multiply to infinity by simple division and
Cost-efficient pre-optimized transfection reagents
The main challenge when choosing a transfection reagent is that we don't know how it will work with our own cell type of interest. It is also time consuming to find the optimal conditions. Well, here's the solution:
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
