An emerging model views gene regulation as a competition for regulatory sequences between transcription factors and nucleosomes at thermodynamic equilibrium. A computational model of the DNA affinity of nucleosomes was recently developed allowing to predic ...
Stem cell use in bladder tissue engineering is a recently addressed area of investigation that has generated excitement as a novel way to restore and regenerate lost or damaged urinary bladder tissue. The remodelling of smooth muscle plays a significant ro ...
The forthcoming arrival on the market of numerous protein therapeutics that require high clinical doses will foster the need for high-producing mammalian cell lines. Furthermore, pressures to reduce the development time for new therapeutics has meant more ...
Breakthroughs in health care over the coming decades may well consist of cell based therapeutics, potentially allowing the repair and replacement of damaged tissues and organs. Recently developed induced pluripotency methods as well as advances in stem cel ...
The developmental potential of human pluripotent stem cells suggests that they can produce disease-relevant cell types for biomedical research. However, substantial variation has been reported among pluripotent cell lines, which could affect their utility ...
For tissue engineering, several cell types and tissues have been proposed as starting material. Allogenic skin products available for therapeutic usage are mostly developed with cell culture and with foreskin tissue of young individuals. Fetal skin cells o ...
Current restrictions for human cell-based therapies have been related to technological limitations with regards to cellular proliferation capacity (simple culture conditions), maintenance of differentiated phenotype for primary human cell culture and trans ...
Current restrictions for human cell-based therapies have been related to technological limitations with regards to cellular proliferation capacity and maintenance of differentiated phenotype for primary human cell culture. In our experience, we have seen t ...
Drug-inducible systems allowing the control of gene expression in mammalian cells are invaluable tools for genetic research, and could also fulfill essential roles in gene- and cell-based therapy. Currently available systems, however, often have limited in ...
Recombinant proteins are important for biomedical research and for the treatment of human disease. Therefore it is necessary to develop reproducible bioprocesses to rapidly produce proteins of adequate quality and quantity. Expression in mammalian cells is ...
