Autotaxin (ATX) is a secreted lysophospholipase D involved in the release of the lipid mediator LPA. Many research tools have been developed to study ATX-LPA signaling.  In this post, I invite you

As with this painted representation of (surrealist!) DNA, to a certain extent, molecular cloning is an art.

Unfortunately for newcomers, or fortunately for experts, it's required for many downstream applications

Inflammation is involved in many fields including cosmetology, drug discovery (including RNA-based vaccines), and diagnostic index development, as well as being linked to almost every disease such as HIV,

In a recently published study, researchers sought to elucidate if 2 treatments modulated immune response or not, despite the available evidence being conflicting. The method that made the difference and

One of the challenges in R&D is to find robust technologies to develop diagnostic tests. Notably, it could be within a context of asymptomatic infections for which reliable detection of positive specimens

In a previous post, I introduced Sekisui Xenotech's Research Biobank, which is based on rejections from liver transplantation as opposed to post-mortem tissues, thus offering a guarantee for better tissue

I just want to briefly outline in this post the power of antibody microarray when it comes to time and cost saving as well as versatility. Whether you want to do multiple profiling or quantitative studies,

Echelon Biosciences are specialized in the development of novel assays and reagents in Lipid research, with the commitment to innovate and provide the best solutions for researchers. They have recently

Developing new therapeutic agents to boost the immune system and avoid the escape of diseased cells from the natural defenses is the common goal of all researchers in Immunotherapy. To greatly reduce time

The first time a cell biologist discovers that there might be a lipid involved in their favourite pathway, it's a bit like finding a wall across the road (just the same situation as when a lipidomist

The close relation between Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), unpaired adaptive immune responses and overexpression of inflammatory cytokines has been described more than a decade ago (1, 2).

Hyaluronic acid (also called HA or Hyaluronan) is a glycosaminoglycan with elevated viscosity, enabling tissues (eye, skin, joint and synovial fluid...) to resist to physical and mechanical constraints
