In the past, molecular motor proteins like kinesins have been investigated with macromolecular approaches. Recent research on kinesins has been focused on resolving how kinesin is regulated by intramolecular

Cartilage is a flexible connective tissue which can rapidly grow and which is specialized to absorb and resist compression. The perichondrium, a vascularized layer, surrounds the tissue which does not

Pneumococcus, or scientifically speaking, Streptococcus pneumoniae, is a pathogen responsible for a number of illnesses, including pneumonia, ear infections, sinus infections, meningitis and bacteremia.

DNA and Histone proteins are targets for epigenetic modifications. While DNA is only methylated, histones can be targets for diverse modifications such as methylation, acetylation, ubiquitination, phosphorylation

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

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.

Adenoassociated viruses (AAV) are small (20-30 nm), ssDNA, non-enveloped and replication-defective viruses that infect human and other primate species, but which, up to now, have not been reported as being

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

Lentiviruses are robust tools for cell line engineering and development. As opposed to models that only infect dividing cells, lentiviral vectors are ideal for long term gene delivery into dividing and

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

Extracellular vesicles in general, or exosomes in particular, are becoming a hot topic for research, especially in cancer. They seem to have different roles in tumour progression or can be used as

Adenovirus (AV) are non-enveloped and non-integrative icosaedral viruses. Recombinant AV (genetically modified with respect to the wild-type in order to lose their capacity of replication) are widely used
