Study demonstrates ability of blended electrospun mat to gradually release protein

Russian scientists from the Federal Research Clinical Center of Physical-Chemical Medicine, the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, and Lomonosov Moscow State University have shown that it is possible to combine two incompatible components—a protein and a polymer—in one electrospun fiber.

More efficient, cost-effective method for accurate synthesis of DNA

DNA is a genetic material that continues to survive only through replication, either naturally or synthetically. Humans require reproduction of DNA to replace damaged or old cells, but the potential to replicate DNA in a laboratory setting can allow scientists understand the disease mechanisms or the platform to develop treatments.

Hero proteins can prevent dangerous clumps linked with neurodegenerative diseases

At the University of Tokyo (UTokyo), scientists have identified a new group of proteins that have been hailed for their extraordinary shape and potential to defend against protein clumps linked with neurodegenerative diseases in laboratory experiments.

Study explores the impact of solute carriers on the activity and potency of cytotoxic drugs

At the CeMM Research Center for Molecular Medicine of the Austrian Academy of Sciences, scientists have investigated how solute carriers (SLCs)—a large class of membrane transport proteins—affect the activity and potency of cytotoxic drugs, for example, those used to treat leukemia and other cancers.
