The SARS-CoV-2 Alpha (B.1.1.7) variant mutated to evade our 'innate immune system', helping establish it as the world's first 'Variant of Concern', finds a new study led by researchers at UCL and the Quantitative Biosciences Institute, University of California San Francisco.

New research optimizes methods for the in-planta expression of the recombinant protein corresponding to the Receptor Binding Domain (RBD) subunit of the surface-exposed Spike glycoprotein of SARS-CoV-2.

New findings may help doctors choose effective COVID-19 treatment regimens for patients with heart complications.

This work has emphasized the clinical and translational potential of paper-based biosensors.

This first-in-human study of golodirsen showed its long-term safety and biologic activity in patients with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD). The approved exon-skipping therapy is designed to enable the production of functional dystrophin proteins, as described in the peer-reviewed journal Nucleic Acid Therapeutics.

How the adaptation of protein-expressing HEK293 cells without cell clumping can be accomplished with the Brunswick S41i

Cancer treatments necessarily target unchecked cell growth, and selectively kill cancer cells while sparing normal cells and avoiding general toxicity in the human body.

Males and females differ in prevalence, treatment responses, and survival rates for a variety of diseases. For cardiac disease, women almost uniformly fare far worse than men. There are likely many reasons for this, and scientists at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Princeton University seemed to have found one deep inside cells before we're even born.

A group of researchers from various institutes in the USA addressed the limitations of BAT therapy by transplanting a low dose of brown adipocytes (BAs) without Matrigel to determine if this could alleviate high-fat diet-induced OB, metabolic symptoms, and T2DM in mice.
