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
15 Ubiquitin - Proteasome inhibitors for cancer research
With more than 100 types of cancers affecting any part of the body, cancer is one of the leading causes of death in the world. It has an enormous impact on well-being, both for those with the diagnosis
2 new Actin and Tubulin live cell imaging stains - without transfection!
Cytoskeletal live cell imaging is extremely powerful when investigating cellular processes such as cytokinesis, motility and organelle transport and organization. The current experimental procedures
6 Tips for a successful ELISA
ELISA are immunoassays widely used in biomarker detection and validation. They have been used in research and clinical settings for more than 40 years, and they allow to quantify, in a simple way, thousands
The TRPV1 Pain Receptor activates T cells
The Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) ion channel family participates in numerous functions of the Nervous System. A recent publication tends to indicate that TRP might also be of interest for therapeutical
Sample interference in ELISA tests
A previous post explained how samples obtained from patients treated with mAbs can show interference with WB & ELISA methods. More rarely, we can also find other interference effects caused by different
Hyaluronic acid - size matters!
Hyaluronic acid (HA), or hyaluronan, is an ubiquitous, very high molecular mass polysaccharide that has applications in a variety
Actin staining techniques in fixed and living cells
Actin can be stained in living and fixed cells to determine and follow the structure and function of the cytoskeleton. The actin cytoskeleton is a very dynamic and labile structure in the living cell,
Antibiotics and microbial metabolites - revisited
What are metabolites?
Microorganisms live in a world of chemical signals. They use small molecular weight compounds, known as metabolites, to regulate their own growth and development, to encourage other
PGE2 role in carcinoma chemoresistance via CSC repopulation
The involvement of Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in cancer development has already been described (see the post "Tumour microenvironment – the dark side of PGE2). Recently, Kurtova et al. confirmed this
