Jan 28, 2025 · Cellular metabolism is a powerful indicator of cell activation, differentiation, growth, cell death and disease progression. Therefore, metabolite monitoring offers a way for researchers to assess the condition of their cell cultures. Once a laborious process, tracking cellular metabolism can now be ...

Sep 23, 2024 · This year’s Society for Neuroscience (SfN) annual meeting, Neuroscience 2024, is taking place at McCormick Place in Chicago (IL, USA) from 5–9 October 2024.The meeting brings together neuroscientists from across the world to discover new ideas and share the latest discoveries and advances in the field.

Oct 8, 2024 · The Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Victor Ambros (University of Massachusetts Medical School) and Gary Ruvkun (Harvard Medical School [HMS], both MA, USA) for their discovery of microRNA – small, non-coding RNA molecules – and its role in gene regulation.Revealing new layers of genome regulation. Since their discovery in the 1960s, transcription factors have ...

Jun 15, 2023 · Coplin jars filled with buffer were pre-heated inside the mini Instant Pot. Sample slides were then added, and heat retrieval performed. To validate the method, the researchers tested sections of transplantable Colon 38 (C38) tumor cell line grown in syngeneic C57BL/6 mice, known to contain an abundance of CD8 cells, for an anti-CD8 antibody.

Mar 27, 2024 · Microbiology investigates the mighty, minute organisms – including bacteria, archaea, algae, fungi, protozoa and viruses – that play an essential role in our health and ecosystems around the globe.. Microbes’ diversity makes them an interesting group of organisms to study. In this piece, we highlight just a few of the latest microbiology discoveries and the innovative techniques that are ...

Jan 24, 2025 · In this issue of BioTechniques, we present a colorimetric-based method for quantifying biotin binding capacity, the development of a portable device for RNA extraction and a protocol for assessing cell-line immortality.. Technology News. CRISPR in 3D: innovations in disease modeling and personalized medicine. Editorial. Importance of a reference ladder in analytical testing of CRISPR HDR donor ...

Nov 20, 2023 · Secretin receptor signaling induces oxytocin release. Whilst enteroendocrine (EEC) cells were ruled out as a producer of oxytocin in the small intestine, its secretion by L. reuteri from organoids did require increased EECs, which made the researchers question whether an EEC-derived product mediates L. reuteri-driven release of oxytocin.. In the brain, the peptide hormone secretin can release ...

Oct 8, 2024 · The Boltzmann machine. Geoffrey Hinton used the Hopfield method and statistical physics to develop a new network called the Boltzmann machine, which can learn to autonomously recognize specific elements in a data type.
