• Researchers reveal malaria's deadly grip

  Researchers at the University of Copenhagen, in collaboration with Seattle Biomedical Research Institute, the University of Oxford, NIMR Tanzania and Retrogenix LTD, have identified how malaria parasites growing inside red blood cells stick to the sides of blood vessels in severe cases of malaria. T more

• Penn study shows how immune system peacefully co-exists with 'good' bacteria
  

  The human gut is loaded with commensal bacteria – "good" microbes that, among other functions, help the body digest food. The gastrointestinal tract contains literally trillions of such cells, and yet the immune system seemingly turns a blind eye. However, in several chronic human diseases such as i more

• Study finds interferon, one of the body's proteins, induces persistent viral infection

  Scientists at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) have made a counterintuitive finding that may lead to new ways to clear persistent infection that is the hallmark of such diseases as AIDS, hepatitis B and hepatitis C. The study, reported in the journal Science, focused on the activity of the body more

• Clinical Biomarkers: Novel Tools for Pharmacodynamic Applications
  

  Biomarkers are currently changing the way we diagnose and treat diseases. Today pharmacodynamic biomarkers are widely used in the industry elaborating optimal dosing of new drugs and predictive biomarkers have an enormous potential for companion diagnostics more

• Cytokine Quantification in Drug Development
  

  Immuno-PCR (IPCR) and ElectroChemiLuminescence (ECL) are technologies for improved performance of immunoassays. The specific advantages of the different technologies, using enzymatic or electrical signal amplification, allow for tailored assay design and address several specific challenges, such as maximum sensitivity up to 1 fg/ml target cytokine, simultaneous detection of multiple antigens, and high robustness against biological matrices more

• HelpCorner - Cell Proliferation and Viability
  

  Cell viability can be defined as the number of healthy cells in a sample. Cell viability assays are often useful when non-dividing cells (such as primary cells) are isolated and maintained in culture to determine optimal culture conditions for these populations. The most useful and straightforward method for determining viable cell number is to stain the cells with a dye such as trypan blue and count them in a hemocytometer (e.g., the Neubauer hemocytometer). more

• GDNF–RET Signaling in ER-Positive Breast Cancers Is a Key Determinant of Response and Resistance to Aromatase Inhibitors

  Most breast cancers at diagnosis are estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) and depend on estrogen for growth and survival. Blocking estrogen biosynthesis by aromatase inhibitors has therefore become a first-line endocrine therapy for postmenopausal women with ER+ breast cancers. Despite providing substan more

• Dual Blockade of PD-1 and CTLA-4 Combined with Tumor Vaccine Effectively Restores T-Cell Rejection Function in Tumors

  Tumor progression is facilitated by regulatory T cells (Treg) and restricted by effector T cells. In this study, we document parallel regulation of CD8+ T cells and Foxp3+ Tregs by programmed death-1 (PD-1, PDCD1). In addition, we identify an additional role of CTL antigen-4 (CTLA-4) inhibitory rece more

• Inhibitory effects and molecular mechanisms of garlic organosulfur compounds on the production of inflammatory mediators

  Scope Garlic is used for both culinary and medicinal purposes by many cultures. The garlic organosulfur compounds (GOSCs) are thought to be bioactive components. This study aims to clarify the antiinflammatory effects and molecular mechanisms of GOSCs in both cell and animal models. Methods more
