Introduction The BALB/C mouse is a widely used inbred strain in biomedical research, particularly in the fields of immunology, cancer research, and genetics. Among the various tissues studied, the kidney holds significant importance due to its complex structure and multifaceted role in physiological functions. A formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) block of the BALB/C mouse kidney serves as an ...
Virus-like particles (VLPs) have garnered significant attention in recent years for their potential applications in vaccine development, drug delivery, and as tools in various biotechnological fields. These nanoparticles mimic the structure of viruses but lack the viral genetic material that makes viruses infectious. This unique characteristic offers a versatile platform for various innovative ...
Circulating Tumor Cells, or CTCs, are cancer cells that have shed from the primary tumor and enter the bloodstream, where they can travel and potentially lead to metastasis. ...
This phenomenon offers a remarkable opportunity in cancer therapy. Tumors often exhibit mutations that can be exploited for targeted treatments. ...
Understanding the immune system is fundamental to advancing biomedical research, especially in areas such as cancer, autoimmune diseases, and infectious diseases. Mouse models play a pivotal role in this field, as their immune system shares many similarities with that of humans. A key aspect of studying the immune system involves analyzing cytokines, chemokines, and growth ...
Colorectal cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths globally. To advance our understanding of this disease and improve treatment strategies, researchers heavily rely on colorectal cancer cell lines. These cell lines serve as essential models for studying the biology of colorectal cancer, testing new therapies, and exploring the mechanisms of drug resistance. What are ...

Peptidomimetics are structural analogs of peptides or proteins that mimic their biological activities. They are designed to overcome limitations associated with peptides, such as poor stability and bioavailability by preserving or enhancing their functions. Peptidomimetic development involves the design and synthesis of molecules that mimic three-dimensional structures and functional groups of ...
Ribonucleases (RNases) represent a critical class of enzymes with a principal role in the degradation of RNA, crucial for maintaining cellular homeostasis and regulating gene expression. By cleaving RNA molecules, RNases are integral to numerous biological processes, ranging from RNA maturation to the innate immune response against RNA viruses. In this exploration, we delve into the multifaceted ...
Genomics: Whole-genome sequencing identifies genetic mutations and alterations driving tumor growth. ...
What is Gene Knockout Technology?Gene knockout (Gene Knockout) is a molecular biology technique that allows researchers to block or shut off the function of a specific gene to study its role and importance. This technique is achieved by introducing mutations into the gene, making it impossible for the gene to express properly or produce functional proteins.Applications of Gene Knockout ...
Breast cancer is a type of cancer that begins in the cells of the breast. It can occur in both men and women but is more common in women. Breast cancer can develop in different parts of the breast, including the tubes that carry milk to the nipple or the lobules that produce milk. The exact cause of breast cancer is not completely understood, but factors such as genetics, hormone situations, ...
