Screen for inhibitors of PD-1 signalling with a complete cellular assay system
Immunotherapy represents a field in Drug Discovery which is quickly developing and leading to significant progress in treatments of a number of diseases, especially cancer. The approach is based on inducing,
LipiDye fluorescent probe for lipid droplet monitoring in live cells
LipiDye lipid droplet Green* is a new highly sensitive fluorescent probe for detecting lipid droplets in live or fixed cells. In this, let's review the characteristics of this dye which is compatible
How to activate or inhibit autophagy?
The term Autophagy was introduced by Christian de Duve during the Ciba Foundation Symposium on Lysosomes – which was held in London in February 1963. In 1974 he was honoured with the Nobel price in

Stauprimide inhibits c-myc transcription in cancer cells
Stauprimide is known to prime Embryonic Stem Cells (ESC) by targeting the c-Myc-activating transcription factor NME2. Its mechanism of action is linked to the inhibition of the nuclear localization of
Biomolecule conjugation - how to biotinylate with reproducible results?
Biomolecule conjugation is critical to many applications such as bead-based assays, ELISA and chromatography by affinity. Unfortunately the classical methods are known to be tedious and with low efficiency.
Bioactive neuronal lipid mediators: a focus on Synaptamide
Focus Biomolecules produces a broad range of bioactive lipid mediators as well as many small molecule inhibitors of numerous lipid metabolic pathways for use as cellular probes. These can be supplied
