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...
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...
Gene therapy for two forms of inherited retinal degeneration have met promising safety and efficacy endpoints in early stage clinical trials. These approaches made use of a replication defect...
In this talk, we will review using LC MS for Quantitative analysis of Pet Hemp product specifically CBD oils. Seven samples of commercial CBD oil marketed for pets were analyzed. LoD and LoQ...
Bromodomains (BRDs) are evolutionarily conserved protein domains that interact with acetylated histones and set off a chain of events that includes recruiting transcription factors and other...
One of the central tenants of biology is that our genetics—our genotype—influences the physical characteristics we manifest—our phenotype. But with more than 25,000 human g...
The need for high-throughput laboratory testing to identify SARS-CoV-2 infected individuals has reached nearly unprecedented levels. This demand has also led to supply chain issues that have...
Three dimensional (3D) spheroidal cell models have become a mainstay in life science research to provide the most in vivo-like environment. Performing media exchanges and washes with unattac...
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is characterized clinically by poor survival and mechanistically by KRAS- and autophagy-dependent growth. We and others previously demonstrated that i...
The application of modeling tools to better understand and control bioprocess development and manufacturing has become a hot topic within the last few years. However, what do we actually nee...
Comprehensive genomic profiling in clinical research studies helps to detect clinically relevant cancer driver mutations using low amount of tumor tissues within several days. Recent studies...
Cells in their natural environment are surrounded by a complex extracellular matrix that provides structure and functional cues to the surrounding cells. Hydrogels can be used to approximate...
Mass spectrometry-based proteomics methods are finding increasing use in structural biology research. Beyond simple interaction networks, information about stable protein-protein, protein-li...
Cell therapies, including chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy, are emerging as promising treatments, especially for hematological malignancies. However, many challenges remain in...
It has been publicly stated by the CDC that one in 5 Americans had an STI in 2018 and costs our healthcare system roughly $16 billion in direct medical costs. Routine sexually transmitted inf...
Ninety percent of therapeutic agents reaching clinical trial fail to reach entry to market, with safety concerns being a major cause for failures in phase I and II clinical trials. Drug-indu...
In the United States, cancer disproportionately impacts Black and African American individuals. Identifying genetic factors underlying cancer disparities has been an important research focus...
CRISPR-based diagnostics offer rapid and highly sensitive detection of disease biomarkers. Their ease of use and compatibility with lateral-flow readouts make them suitable for point-of-care...
Central Nervous System (CNS) therapies have significantly progressed in the last decade, propelled by emerging treatment modalities including gene therapies. Neurological indications remain...
In this talk, I will discuss the development of interpretable machine learning models to test scientific hypotheses, with a specific focus on spinal motor control. Voluntary movement require...
The tumor-associated microbiota is an inherent component of the tumor microenvironment across various human cancer types1. Although members of tumor-associated microbiomes can be identified t...
In the rapidly expanding landscape of molecular diagnostics, the focus is shifting from top to bottom, with a redirection from post-pandemic respiratory testing to developments in gastrointe...
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...
Analysis of community wastewater has been shown to be an effective method for tracking the prevalence of SARS-COV-2. Our group has developed techniques for sequencing a portion of the SARS-C...
