6 tips for thawing hepatocytes
Cryopreserved hepatocytes contain the major hepatic drug-metabolizing enzymes required to study the four categories of xenobiotic biotransformation: hydrolysis, reduction, oxidation and conjugation. Cryopreserved
Distinctions between homogeneous bulk cancer cell tumors vs. Cancer Stem cell driven tumors by Pr. Clarke
Professor Alan Clarke, (Director of the European Cancer Stem Cell Research Institute) has recently given an overview of how Cancer Stem cell tumors differ from the conventional "homogenous bulk cancer
ChAT+ neurons and neurogenesis by Paez-Gonzalez et al. (Duke University)
Paez-Gonzalez et al. (Duke University) have discovered a new population of choline acetyltransferase (ChAT)+ neurons present in the rodent subventricular zone (SVZ). (1) This niche is known
Actin-Binding Proteins (ABPs) review
Actin filaments are essential for cytoskeleton functions (cell morphology, endocytosis and trafficking, contractility, motility...). In eukaryotic cells, polymerization and depolymerization of actin
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
Functional Proteomics for biomarker characterisation
HSCI's researchers switch skin cells into pain-sensing neurons

What's new in qPCR?
We know molecular biologists spent a lot of time setting up their qPCR protocols and aren't about to change the way they do things. We also know they are technically savvy and like keeping up
Alternatives to the "mega-brands" of molecular biology
If you don't buy luxury brand clothes, why are you still buying luxury brand molecular biology kits?
Let me guess... you might use those blue and red boxed Qiagen® kits for DNA and RNA purification,
Focus on apolipoproteins
Apolipoproteins, with amphipathic properties, form lipoprotein particles with phospholipids and transport hydrophobic lipids through lymphatic and blood circulations
