Lipids are not merely structural components of cellular membranes—they also act as powerful signaling molecules that orchestrate key physiological processes. Among the enzymes regulating lipid signaling, ENPP2 (Ectonucleotide Pyrophosphatase/Phosphodiesterase 2), also known as autotaxin, plays a central role by converting lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) into the bioactive lipid ...
Marker bands serve a critical function in medical imaging and interventional procedures, offering Marker bands are essential for precise visualization during medical treatments. Designed for visibility under fluoroscopic imaging, these radiopaque bands, made from materials like platinum-iridium alloy, gold, and tantalum, play a critical role in healthcare applications. They enhance accuracy in ...
The human brain has long been regarded as one of the most enigmatic subjects in both medicine and science, captivating interest since ancient times. Its intricate architecture and advanced functionalities continue to inspire awe. However, it is through the lens of contemporary medical technology that we can begin to uncover the secrets within the brain, revealing the intricate structures nestled ...
Structure of Matrix Metalloproteinase (MMP) Family In vertebrates, the MMP family consists of 28 members, at least 23 of which are expressed in human tissues, 14 of which are expressed in the vascular system. MMPs are usually classified into collagenases, gelatinases, stromelysins, matrilysins, membrane-type (MT)-MMPs, and other MMPs based on their substrates and the organization of their ...
Kadcyla and second-generation non-cleavable linkers Alternative linker design methodologies are still under development. Immunogen discovered a very powerful ADC by an accidental discovery. The lysine residue of trastuzumab is linked to DM1 via a non-cleavable linker containing N-succinimidyl-4-(N-maleimidomethyl)cyclohexane-1-carboxylate (SMCC), an ADC (T-DM1, Kadcyla) authorized by the FDA in ...
