Advances in cell and molecular biology have catapulted our understanding of the science of life from the basic understanding of how cells and the components of cells interact within living organisms. Remain up to date on recent discoveries and revelations through these webinars.
Healthy human red blood cells (RBCs) gradually degrade over their lifespan of ~120 days. However, sickle cells - RBCs from sickle cell disease (SCD) patients - degrade much faster within the...
Macrophages have been implicated in both the resolution and progression of influenza, but the drivers of these outcomes are poorly understood. We probed mouse lung transcriptomic datasets us...
T cells exquisitely discriminate between antigenic and self-peptide ligands presented on major histocompatibility complexes (pMHCs) despite subtle differences in affinities. This aspect of a...
Stem cells respond to both physical and biochemical changes in their stem cell niche. An ideal scaffold for tissue engineering application should mimic the microenvironment for natural tissu...
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid-bilayer enclosed nano-sized vesicles that are released by all cell types and found in all bodily fluids. EVs are emerging as important regulators of bo...
Get to know Luminex’s xMAP® Technology all over again. For 27 years, xMAP Technology has become known as the worldwide leader in bead-based multiplexing. With the new xMAP INTELLIF...
In the United States, prostate cancer (PCa) is the second-leading cause of cancer death in men. Multiple observations indicate the link between prostate carcinogenesis, stress of endoplasmi...
Microtubule plus-end tracking proteins (+TIPs) play key roles in the regulation of microtubule dynamics in vivo. These proteins bind to and regulate microtubule “plus‐ends”, whic...
Measuring the shear rheology for highly temperature sensitive materials is challenging. Material characterization tools are slow compared to industrial processing. Using numerical simulation...
Rather than being famous in gene editing field only, by revealing the collateral cleavage activity of Cas12a, Cas13a, Cas14 effectors, and more, Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindr...
Acute T-cell mediated rejection (TCMR) is the most frequent complication after liver transplantation (LT), which can affect up to 50% of LT recipients in the first 5-year post-transplant. Li...
In recent years in vivo CNS dosing has gone from being a relatively uncommon modality to one that is fairly standard. However, bringing this administration route into maturity requires an un...
Within the kidney, the glomerulus is the structure in charge of the renal ultrafiltration. Loss of glomerular function leads to renal damage and could end with irreversible damage. The major...
mRNA vaccines represent a pivotal innovation in prophylactic healthcare, offering a rapid response to emerging infectious diseases. Leveraging the cellular machinery to produce antigenic pro...
Today, the majority of cell biology operations are carried out manually, even though the core steps are highly reproducible. Staff are expected to conduct repetitive tasks for hours each day...
Endonuclease Cas12a, as one key part of the CRISPR/Cas biotechnology, possessed a unique dual enzymatic function which has been widely used for various applications1. However, the limits tra...
Gene regulatory networks are representations of the relationship between transcription factors and their target genes. By modeling gene regulatory networks, it is possible to identify change...
Actin cytoskeleton is essential for eukaryotic cells. To exert its countless cellular functions, actin undergoes dynamic remodeling orchestrated by the large number of actin-interacting fact...
Research focused on SARS-CoV-2 has become a primary focus in genomic and molecular biology fields. With a constantly changing field with new methods for screening and studying virus-host int...
In the slowly evolving landscape of bioprocess development and manufacturing, digital bioprocess-twins have emerged as potential accelerators. While advanced algorithms are at the heart of t...
Nanoparticle mRNA Therapeutics has been the focus of intense research driven by the safety profile and several clinical breakthroughs. As of March 2024, there are two mRNA vaccines approved...
A microphysiological system is a 3D in vitro model that mimics human tissue environments with high physiological relevance. This approach enhances our understanding of disease mechanisms, dr...
Organisms sense and respond to changes in the environment through signal transduction pathways. Pathways like highly conserved Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) pathways are composed o...
The explosion of interest in extracellular vesicles has largely coincided with the development of tools which allow their rapid and routine characterization, in this presentation we will ide...
The use of primary human hepatocytes in basic research or other clinical applications (e.g., liver assist devices, ex vivo gene therapy, and hepatocyte transplantation) is limited by a short...
One of the primary limitations in drug discovery and toxicology research is the lack of good model systems between the single cell level and animal or human systems. This is especially true...
