Animal models of human pathologies remain invaluable tools for unraveling disease mechanisms and evaluating potential therapeutic strategies. For a number of diseases, the lack of a reliable animal model represents an important limiting step towards the de ...
Haematopoeitic system diseases, both acquired and inherited, can be currently cured by allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. This treatment provides highly successful immune function recovery for patients receiving grafts of HLA-compatible d ...
A major challenge in neurological gene therapy is delivery of the transgene to sufficient cell numbers in an atraumatic manner. This is particularly difficult for motor neuron (MN) diseases that have cells located across the entire spinal cord, brain stem, ...
Enantioselective Rh-promoted activation and 1,4-positional swap of unactivated tetraorganosilanes, e.g., 1-ethyl-3-methyl-3-(2-(trimethylsilyl)phenyl)cyclobutanol (I) to give (1S,3S)-1-ethyl-3-methyl-3((trimethylsilyl)methyl)indanol (II). E.g., reaction of ...
Transgenic animals are essential research tools, whether to address basic biological questions or to develop preclinical models of human diseases. Their generation through the injection of naked plasmid DNA into the male pronucleus of a fertilized oocyte h ...
Human neural progenitor cells (hNPC) hold great potential as an ex vivo system for delivery of therapeutic proteins to the central nervous system. When cultured as aggregates, termed neurospheres, hNPC are capable of significant in vitro expansion. In the ...
Tissue Engineering points to maintain, restore or to improve and create new tissues. This purpose typically involves the selection of a natural or synthetic biomaterial as a scaffold to create the biological substitutes. Furthermore, angiogenesis, the grow ...
NOVELTY - Determining a receptor-ligand interaction involves repeatedly contacting a cell comprising a receptor, with a ligand, of the receptor in which the ligand has a fluorescence labeling group and binds reversibly to the receptor under conditions in w ...
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the progressive degeneration of the dopaminergic nigrostriatal pathway and the abnormal appearance of intracellular inclusions named Lewy bodies (LBs). Over the past few years, the d ...
Recombinant proteins are gaining in importance for therapeutic applications. The proteins are expressed in stable cell lines, within which recombinant DNA has incorporated into the host cells genome. Identification and isolation of extremely high producers ...
