IP3-mediated STIM1 oligomerization requires intact mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake by Deak et al.
Deak AT et al. decipher the mechanisms by which mitochondria contribute to Ca2+ intracellular signaling. In their recent paper (1), they show that mitochondrial "Ca2+ buffering" close to the Endoplasmic
Distinctions between homogeneous bulk cancer cell tumors vs. Cancer Stem cell driven tumors by Pr. Clarke
Professor Alan Clarke, (Director of the European Cancer Stem Cell Research Institute) has recently given an overview of how Cancer Stem cell tumors differ from the conventional "homogenous bulk cancer
ChAT+ neurons and neurogenesis by Paez-Gonzalez et al. (Duke University)
Paez-Gonzalez et al. (Duke University) have discovered a new population of choline acetyltransferase (ChAT)+ neurons present in the rodent subventricular zone (SVZ). (1) This niche is known
Actin-Binding Proteins (ABPs) review
Actin filaments are essential for cytoskeleton functions (cell morphology, endocytosis and trafficking, contractility, motility...). In eukaryotic cells, polymerization and depolymerization of actin
Immunogenicity in biotherapeutics and biosimilars
Following on from my previous post on biosimilars and biotherapeutics (or biologics), let's now take a look at some of the specific criteria for this kind of compound, which are not normally required
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
2 means to boost RNA-sequencing
RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq) bottlenecks start with library preparation! Is it possible to prepare a RNA-Seq library in a simple and fast way? And how to avoid the bottlenecks of current RNA-sequencing
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
Functional Proteomics for biomarker characterisation
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
