New research published in Nature Communications offers an exciting new cell therapy option using allogeneic macrophage drug conjugates (MDC) to better attack solid tumors, in an effort to overcome some of the limitations experienced by other cell-based therapies. The work was led by scientists at Cellis AG, a European biotechnology company with focus in cell-based oncology therapy […]
In this new work to determine the role of purines in innate immunity a group led by scientists at UCSD used C. elegans orthologs of enzymes in the human purine salvage pathway. In one aspect of this work they also treated HUVECs with concentrations of deoxyadenosine with and without anti-IFN antibody and then infected the […]
Fascinating new knowledge on hypotonic vacuoles from a collaborative effort between Kent State Univ, Hamburg and Salzburg. Despite the well-described and long-understood rationale for vacuoles in lower order eukaryotes little work has been done to determine the conditions for and source of vacuoles in mammalian cell systems. This new work published in Scientific Reports and […]
Sample preparation for single cell and isolated nuclei sorting: de-mystifying the use of DNA dyes for transcriptomics and genomics Sample preparation is a critical step in the downstream molecular analysis of single cells and nuclei. This is true for all biological analysis of course, so do the amount of sample preparation your end-point requires and no […]
