In a previous post on Cellular Matrices for Translational Research, I introduced HyStem hydrogels.  In order to engineer a custom culture system with HyStem, simple pilot studies or optimization

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

Due to their ability to simulate the characteristics of most soft tissues and natural scaffolds, hydrogels are now an attractive material for developing synthetic Extracellular Matrix (ECM) analogs.

Recently,

Small molecules – overcome the barriers to clinical development

The potential of nanomedicine to provide therapeutic benefits over conventional drug formulations has been proven with a number of drugs

Peptide advances in biomedicine

Peptides, which are short chains of amino acids, have gained significant attention in biomedicine due to their diverse applications. Their unique properties, such as high
