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

For one year now,  SiR-Actin and SiR-Tubulin, the second generation of tools to stain actin and tubulin in

In their most recent publication

A crosstalk between cancer and immune cells is established during cancers. The immune system is able to fight against tumour cells (see my previous post "Immunosurveillance: Crosstalk between cancer and

Thousands of researchers spend time pampering their primary cells and cell lines every day, with the aim of defining their optimal cell culture conditions. Researchers are in effect trying to control numerous

Visualizing fixed cells and tissues only gives snap shots of cellular processes. Over the past years, more and more cellular

Tumour immune evasion can be mediated by a complex set of interaction involving p53, miR-34 and PDL1. This is the conclusion of a work by Cortez et al. and recently published in JCNI .

The

The Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB) affects the development of drugs for all pathologies (brain exposure to drugs, side effects...). In the early phases of drug development, there is a strong need for stable

The main challenge when choosing a transfection reagent is that we don't know how it will work with our own cell type of interest. It is also time consuming to find the optimal conditions. Well, here's the solution:

Singlet Oxygen (1O2) fluorescent detection in living cells was limited by the lack of availability of cell membrane permeable dyes. The silicon-based far-red fluorescent probe (Si-DMA) has been especially

In the autumn of 2014, we presented new stains to conduct live cell imaging of Actin and Tubulin, which I covered in my post 2 new Actin and Tubulin live-cell imaging stains – without transfection!
