AIM Biochips - 3D cell culture platform for Immunotherapy and T Cell therapy studies
As mentioned in a previous post the DAX Biochips from AIM Biotech are an innovative and versatile microfluidic platform, allowing researchers to more easily develop 3D cell culture
10 Human Immune Checkpoint biomarkers quantified simultaneously
Immune checkpoint molecules play an important role in T cell functionality after TCR/MHC signalling. Blockade of two B7/CD28 family checkpoint molecules, CTLA-4 and PD-1, have already demonstrated excellent
DDI studies: New TransiPort cells for OATP1A2 and OATP2B1 transporters
Membrane transporters can have clinically relevant effects on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of a drug in various organs and tissues by controlling its absorption, distribution and elimination.
Maximize metabolic activities by limiting Hepatocyte cryoinjury
I am following up on my series of posts based on the work done by Chris Bohl and collaborators at Sekisui Xenotech. Here, he looks at the effect of cryopreservation on pooled hepatocytes metabolic activities,
HDACs: Active drug targets for Immunotherapy treatment
For many pathologies such as cancer or neurological disorders, it has been found that Histone Deacetylase (HDAC) activity is disrupted, making them promising targets for drug development.
Cancer immunotherapy: explore the cytokine "milieu" with Quantibody 200 Biomarker Service
Autologous tumour cell vaccines vs. dendritic cell vaccines: What's best, and why?
Understanding the best approach for tumour vaccinations is of growing importance in the personalized cancer immunotherapy
Kupffer cells in co-culture models for liver inflammation studies
Kupffer primary cells are macrophages endogenous to the liver which have the ability to modulate hepatic inflammation and injury associated with various pathophysiologies and toxicities.
Tips and Tricks: how to increase unstable protein expression in E. Coli
Recombinant protein expression and purification for therapeutic development or for in vitro studies can sometimes be a real challenge. It requires huge investments in both time
3D cell culture validation - impact of physioxic conditions on TIMP-1 expression
When compared to 2D conventional cell culture systems, experimental data obtained with 3D cell culture models have been shown in many instances to be more biologically relevant, closer
Discover the world's first Intracellular Polyamine Imaging Reagent
With their polycationic properties, polyamine organic compounds are involved in various biological functions (DNA-RNA interaction, gene expression...), and can also be considered as cancer marker.
