Scientists Isolate Human Lung Progenitor Cells That Repair Alveolar Damage
Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) have identified a lung stem cell that repairs the organ's gas exchange compartment.  They have isolated and characterized a distinct type of lung stem cell in mice and humans that is essential for repairing lung alveoli damaged by respiratory conditions, such as severe influenza.   Reporting on theirRead more

Migrating Cancer Cells Follow Their Noses into Body Tissues
Migrating cancer cells could use a nose job – not for appearances' sake, but to cut down on metastasis. A pronounced nose, which indicates a high degree of polarization, isn't found on every cancer cell that breaks free of a tumor and enters the circulatory system. But the more polarized cancer cells do seem toRead more

Scientists Identify “Elusive” Human Pancreatic Progenitor Cells
Scientists at the Diabetes Research Institute (DRI), University of Miami, have identified and characterized a population of progenitor cells located in defined areas of the human pancreas, which can be stimulated to develop into glucose-responsive beta cells. The researchers, co-led by Juan Dominguez-Bendala, Ph.D., DRI director of pancreatic stem cell development for translational research, andRead more

Cholesterol Halved by CRISPR/Cas9 Base Editing
A naturally occurring loss-of-function mutation associated with reduced blood lipid levels can be introduced by artificial means – a form of genetic engineering called base editing. Whether the mutation occurs by itself or is deliberately introduced, the consequences are the same. Besides lowering the levels of triglycerides and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol in the blood, theRead more

Signaling Protein Found That Can Act as Tumor Suppressor or Cancer Promoter
Scientists at the University of California San Diego (UCSD) School of Medicine and Moores Cancer Center report that a signaling protein that normally suppresses tumors can be manipulated (or reprogrammed) by growth factors, turning it into a driver of malignant growth and metastasis. They published their study ("Convergence of Wnt, Growth Factor, and Heterotrimeric G ProteinRead more

Human Neural Stem Cells Repair Spinal Cord Injury in Primates
Surgeons and neuroscientists in the U.S. have successfully grafted human neural progenitor cells (NPCs) into rhesus monkeys with spinal cord injuries (SCIs). Medicilon has nervous system models based on anti-depressants, anti-Alzheimer's drugs, sedative-hypnotic and anti-anxiety drugs, analgesics, anti-convulsants, anti-Parkinson's drugs, and anti-schizophrenia drugs.

Metabolic Stability of Drugs
Compound stability is an important factor to consider during the early stages of drug discovery. We have a leading portfolio of compound stability services designed to help you understand the metabolic profile of your compounds. The aim of metabolic stability study is measuring the disappearance rate of a chemical compound. The half-life, in vitro clearanceRead more

Brain Study May Lead to New Ways to Control Pain without Opioids
Pain is an important biological mechanism. It tells us when something in our body is damaged, and forces us into inactivity so energy can be diverted to healing. But sometimes pain can be counter-effective, hindering a person’s ability to actively help themselves, so the brain effectively “turns down” those pain signals so relief can beRead more

Parkinson's Neuronal Loss Linked to Mitochondrial Membrane Lipid
Understanding the underlying molecular mechanisms that mediate the deterioration of cellular function is a critical factor for any disease, and with our incomplete knowledge of neurobiology, it's essential. If we hope to develop improved therapeutics to slow or even stop the progression of fatal neurodegenerative disorders like Parkinson's disease, then identifying the cellular pathways thatRead more

Snacking Patterns in Children Linked to Genetic Variants in Taste Buds
The choices that children make when it comes to snacking could have a strong genetic foundation. A new study from investigators at the University of Guelph in Ontario looked at connections between the genes of taste receptors and linked them to snacking patterns among preschoolers.   Findings from the study were published in the journalRead more
