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 library
Functional Proteomics for biomarker characterisation
HSCI's researchers switch skin cells into pain-sensing neurons
In a recent publication, Dr Clifford
Live cell imaging in action: Killer T-cells hunt their target
In a recent video posted on "Cambridge University's YouTube channel", Professor Gillian Griffiths and co-workers prove how the Life Science Community can benefit from modern and innovative cell imaging
3D monitoring of cell movement through Collagen I
The transition from non-invasive phenotype to invasive phenotype of tumor cells marks the switch from a benign tumor to a more malignant form of cancer. Understanding the mechanisms underlying this hallmark
Focus on apolipoproteins
Apolipoproteins, with amphipathic properties, form lipoprotein particles with phospholipids and transport hydrophobic lipids through lymphatic
High resolution structure of the TRPA1 channel protein
One of the hottest news last month was the high resolution structure of the TRPA1 ion channel protein.
Thiostrepton: a novel lead compound against Dengue?
Dengue Virus (DenV) is transmitted by mosquito vectors. It infects 50-100 million people each year and is at the origin of Dengue Fever and the more lethal Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) and Shock Syndrome
New in vitro cellular model for human Lipodystrophy
Lipodystrophies are disorders characterized by complete or selective loss of adipose tissue from various regions of the body. They might lead to severe metabolic disorders. The development of reliable
Cancer stem cells - friend or foe in the fight against cancer?
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
