Tumour microenvironment - inflammation and immunity
Following our series of posts on tumour microenvironment (TME) and the role of Cox-2/PGE2 signaling, I'd like today to focus on inflammation and immunity.
TME is a dynamic milieu
Glycosylation studies in the inflammasome
In a previous post on tumour microenvironment (TME) and glycosylation, we indicated that new tools for studies on glycosylation of proteins were being developed. We are happy to announce
Physioxia or Hypoxia: what it's all about
Cell culture under oxygen controlled conditions: an improvement towards more predictive results
Oxygen concentration in tissues is a key factor for cell and organ survival. In normal conditions,
Find metastatic biomarkers in osteosarcoma!
Early in 2015, researchers of The University of Queensland Diamantina Institute (Australia) have shown a very sensible approach to the discovery of new biomarkers associated to transition from non-metastatic
10 Human Immune Checkpoint biomarkers quantified simultaneously
Immune checkpoint molecules play an important role in T cell functionality after TCR/MHC signalling. Blockade of two B7/CD28 family checkpoint molecules, CTLA-4 and PD-1, have already demonstrated excellent
3D cell culture validation - impact of physioxic conditions on TIMP-1 expression
When compared to 2D conventional cell culture systems, experimental data obtained with 3D cell culture models have been shown in many instances to be more biologically relevant, closer
