Adenovirus: weapons of mass transduction for gene delivery
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
PBMCs & drug development
Use of human samples including peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs)Â in drug discovery is critical for increasing the chances of success for a small molecule screen hit. A review based on recent
HD-LCI video of HUVEC Transfection with Cytofect Kit
See human cells glow with green fluorescent protein in this time-lapse video. These images were captured over 20 hours via Lumascope 620.

Hepatic Cellular Models
A wide range of in vitro models are used in preclinical drug testing for the investigation of ADME-Tox (Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion and oxicity) properties of New Chemical Entities
Cellular models for studying the human urogenital system
The urogenital system is the organ system of the reproductive organs and the urinary system. These are grouped together because of their proximity to each other, their common embryological origin and the
Cellular models to study the cardiac System (part I)
In this post, I'd like to introduce human aortic, brachiocephalic, carotid artery and coronary artery cells isolated by Cell Applications Inc. In a future post, I'll be highlighting human internal
Cellular models to study the Cardiac System (part II)
In a previous post, I introduced several models to study the cardiac human system. This first post introduced human aortic, brachiocephalic, carotid artery and coronary artery cells isolated by Cell Applications
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 cellÂ
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
New drug for Sickle Cell Disease targets Leukocytes
Leukocytes adhere to blood vessels as a mechanism to enter tissue where there is inflammation. Inadvertently, they pile up sickle cell red blood cells.
Mutations in the hemoglobin gene can render a person
Blood as a cells highway
For years, we already knew that a lot
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
