Immunotherapy Screening - GITR:GITRL pathway
In previous blogs, I invited you to read about the relevance of the B7-1 : CD28, B7-1 : CTLA4, the BLTA:HVEM, CD47:SIRPα , and the PD-1/PD-L1/PD-L2 pathway for immunotherapy screenings and discussed
Fluorescent ShK toxin for Kv1.3 ion channels
Kv1.3 channels are expressed in T-cell lymphocytes and over-expressed in autoimmune diseases. They can be see as a therapeutic taget for T cell mediated autoimmune diseases.
ShK toxin (Stichodactyla helianthus
Novel biomarkers for esophageal cancer
As discussed in previous posts, use of new tools allows the finding of new disease-related biomarkers. Today, we want to put our spotlight on esophageal cancer.

Novel biomarkers in gastric cancer
The word "cancer" groups a series of diseases of different origin and different prognosis, with differentiated molecular mechanisms causing their onset and progression. Hence, discovery of novel biomarkers
Tumour microenvironment - ameloblastomas
Following our post on tumour microenvironment and glioblastoma, we will focus today on ameloblastomas.
Ameloblastomas are benign tumours that occur in the jawbone, and invade bone. This type of tumour
Biomarkers of micronutrient malnutrition
Unfortunately, and still in the XXIst century, micronutrient (MN) malnutrition is a problem in all countries, in all segments of society. While part of the world starves, another part is obese. And a balanced
Erythropoietin - active EPO for... hematologists!
EPO has a reputation with many non-scientists through bad press in the cycling/racing environment. From a researcher's point of view, Erythropoietin or EPO is a 34 KDa glycoprotein known as the main
New biomarkers in periodontal disease
Periodontitis, also generally called gum disease or periodontal disease, begins with bacterial growth in the mouth and may end, if not properly treated, with tooth loss due to destruction of the tissue
E3 Ligases: RING- or HECT-mediated ubiquitination?
A large number of cellular processes are regulated by the reversible conjugation of Ubiquitin (UB) proteins to substrates. UB-related research tools (including E1-, E2 and E3 Ligases) are now commercially
