Thermo Fisher Scientific has developed an advanced assay to qualify FBS for use with ESCs. This assay is designed to sustain undifferentiated ES cells while maintaining karyotype integr...
First discovered as a genome-editing tool just seven years ago, CRISPR systems have already changed the face of basic research, allowing researchers to alter the DNA of hundreds of organisms...
Background: Growing evidence supports the critical role of preexisting immune response in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). However, there are limitations with current evaluation approac...
GeoMx Digital Spatial Profiling Technology! The GeoMx Digital Spatial Profiler (DSP) is a novel platform developed by NanoString. This leading digital technology offers multiplexed measureme...
Recent FDA approval of the first Chimeric Antigen Receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapy offers cancer patients more promise than ever for curative effects. However, many technical challenges in T c...
A fundamental challenge for cystic fibrosis (CF) gene therapy is ensuring sufficient transduction of airway epithelial cells to achieve therapeutic correction. Vehicles such as lysophosphati...
T cell lymphocytes play a central role in the adaptive immune response. They are an essential tool of adoptive cell therapy for the treatment of chronic viral infections and malignant diseas...
With the advent of cost-effective culturing approaches, 3D cell culture models (3D-CCMs) have been rapidly adopted for drug discovery since they provide a more physiologically relevant micro-...
CRISPR-Cas9 systems provide a platform for high efficiency genome editing that are enabling innovative applications of mammalian cell engineering. The delivery of Cas9 plasmid DNA or mR...
Banana (Musa spp.) is one of the major staple food crops grown in over 140 countries in the subtropics and tropics with annual global production of around 148 million metric, feeding about 50...
Gene therapy involves introducing a functional gene into the patient's cells to replace a missing or defective one. It has revolutionized the field of medicine and has the potential to c...
To study cell metabolism, our laboratory has found it exceedingly informative to integrate Agilent Seahorse XF Analyzers with mass spectrometry-based measurements of metabolomics and stable i...
In the last years, progress has been made regarding the differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells into neural stem cells and astrocytes, growing into neurospheres and cerebral organoids...
The discovery of the CRISPR/Cas9 system has transformed research and now allows straightforward alterations in the genome and can be exploited to introduce changes to mimic diseases. This pre...
For academic, biotech, and pharmaceutical scientists who are screening clones or performing high throughput protein purification, the goal is to automate the sample processing without sacrifi...
CRISPR/Cas9 technology has become very popular in the last 5 years and has profoundly changed our way to do genetically engineered animals. I will present the latest development in genome edi...
CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) RNA and CRISPR-associated genes (Cas) assemble into RNA-guided surveillance complex that targets foreign nucleic acids for d...
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health threat, affecting over 10% of the world population, including an estimated 37 million Americans. Importantly, glomerular diseases account for...
CRISPR-Cas9 based gene editing is a powerful tool which can induce heritable mutations at desired genomic loci without leaving transgenic trace in plants. Here we constructed a robust, multip...
Cardiomyocytes (CMs) derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) as well as engineered heart muscles offer great potential for regenerative applications by CM transplantation, f...
