CN Bio declares dispatch of medication digestion and wellbeing poisonousness testing administrations Kumar Jeetendra | October 31, 2020 Liver toxicity is a principal safety concern during drug discovery and development, with the potential to terminate expensive clinical trials already underway. The new services will incorporate the Company’s advanced Liver-on-Chip technology and experience in the field to enable researchers to create predictive and human-relevant data, improving the translatability from discovery to clinic, and hastening …
Altered lipids focus on the body’s endocannabinoid framework to control pain and inflammation Kumar Jeetendra | February 10, 2021 When modified using a process known as epoxidation, two naturally occurring lipids are converted to potent agents that target multiple cannabinoid receptors in neurons, interrupting pathways which promote inflammation and pain, researchers report. These modified compounds, called epo-NA5HT and epo-NADA, have much stronger effects than the molecules from which they are derived, which also modulate …
Study offers understanding into metabolic pathways hijacked by SARS-CoV-2 for viral replication Kumar Jeetendra | March 16, 2021 When SARS-CoV-2, the virus which causes COVID-19, infects a human cell, it quickly begins to replicate by seizing the cell’s existing metabolic machinery. The infected cells churn out thousands of viral genomes and proteins while halting the creation of their own sources. Researchers from Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), and the Broad …
Researchers describe the systems that manage embryonic stem cells Kumar Jeetendra | March 26, 2021 Scientists at the Proteomics Core Unit of the Spanish National Cancer Research Centre (CNIO), headed by Javier Muñoz, have clarified the mechanisms, unknown to date, included in maintaining embryonic stem cells in the best possible condition for their use in regenerative medicine. The results, published in Nature Communications, helps to find novel stem-cell therapies for …
