Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is important in many biological processes such as wound repair, tissue hydration and inflammation. HA is also a potential biomarker for diseases such as osteoarthritis, liver cirrhosis

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 they reside in

Biomarkers specialists are often asked to select an ELISA kit for researchers: with thousands of ELISA references available on the market, the choice can be tricky regarding proteins for which several

Nucleosomes are basis units of DNA packaging in eukaryotic cells. A core particle (mono-nucleosome) consists of a segment of DNA called core DNA (147 bp in length)

A recent paper by Kojima, M. et al. has found

Interferons (IFNs) are low molecular weight proteins that belong to the class of glycoproteins known as cytokines. IFNs are part of the non-specific immune system and are an important first line of defense

In previous posts, we have discussed about whether samples should be pooled, how much (and if) they should be diluted, and how biologicals can affect the final results...and the biomarkers that you find.

Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors (PPARs) are ligand-activated transcription factors of the Nuclear Receptor superfamily. PPAR active compounds are of significant interest in multiple pharmaceutical

A recent article by E. Langer (E. Langer, “Another In-House Operation Gets Outsourced” (2015) Pharmaceutical Technology 39 (6)) describes the growing

G Protein Coupled Receptors (GPCR) and ion channels are important targets in drug development. Both target classes represent membrane proteins which require convenient and robust cell-based assays for
