Protein phosphorylation analysis is  more and more used for cell signaling studies. This post-translational modification regulates the function of numerous proteins in both physiological and disease-related

Neurotrophins are important biomarkers in Neurobiology, including stem cell development to neural lineages. BDNF and NGF are the ones being studied in most cases. However, it has been found that neurotrophins

ELISAs are widely used in biomarker-related studies, especially when a high number of samples is involved, and only a few biomarkers need to be quantified. That said, incubations can be somehow cumbersome,

Today, following our series on Tumour Microenvironment (TME), and leading on from three recent publications, let's discuss Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs).

CSCs are part of the TME, as they reside in

Recombinant CYPs are commonly used in ADME-Tox studies as in vitro tools, mostly for reaction phenotyping, enzyme inhibition screening, clearance and metabolite ID.

"Research has shown that rCYPs expressed

In a few forthcoming posts, I'd like to share several short articles published by Dr Chris Bohl of Sekisui Xenotech, a technical expert in the field of ADME-Tox tools and applications. I feel they may

Following up on my series of posts based on Dr Chris Bohl's work at Sekisui Xenotech, in this post I invite you to take a look at the work he has published, together with Dr Christopher Seib, Maciej Czerwinski,

Pooled human hepatocytes are a preferred test system in many drug discovery and development applications requiring intact cellular systems for in vitro testing. Intact hepatocytes contain the major hepatic

NADPH is a critical cofactor supporting numerous biochemical reactions. In ADME-Tox studies, NAD(P)H regeneration is strongly recommended when using drug metabolizing enzymes (ex. Cytochrome

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,

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. Pro-inflammatory
