Scientists funded by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) have uncovered what happens to biomimetic nanoparticles when they enter human cells. The research is published today (22 September) in ACS Nano.
Starpharma Holdings Limited (ASX:SPL, OTCQX:SPHRY) today announced that it has received notification of the grant in the US of a key patent specifically relating to the use of SPL7013 to protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
New data on signalling proteins, called G proteins, may prove important in fighting diseases such as cardiovascular, neurodegenerative disorders, and cancer.
For the past 40 years, cancer research at MIT has focused on identifying the molecular mechanisms that cause the disease. While that is still a hot research field, the focus is now expanding.
Researchers at the Institute for Hygiene and Biotechnology (IHB) at the Hohenstein Institute have successfully devised a special, optimised textile coating that allows adult human stem cells to colonise the surface fibres of textile implants. A molecular layer of natural biomaterials from the human extra-cellular matrix has been developed for this purpose.
Many medical conditions, such as chronic pain, cancer and diabetes, require medications that cannot be taken orally, but must be dosed intermittently, on an as-needed basis, over a long period of time. A few delivery tec...
An innovative drug-delivery system – nanoparticles encapsulating nitric oxide or prescription drugs - shows promise for topical treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED), according to a new study by scientists at Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University.
and markets proprietary Integrated Fluidic Circuit (IFC) systems that significantly improve productivity in life science research, will provide the latest updates for its upcoming Stem Cell Culture Chip at the World Stem Cell Summit being held in Baltimore on September 21 - 23.
Agents employed for the chemotherapy of cancer can have unwanted side-effects. Therefore, a major objective of novel approaches to therapy is to find ways of efficiently targeting the treatment to the tumour, so as to mi...
Functionalized nano- and microscale particle systems have become a key component in biomedical applications, from drug delivery to prosthetics. Their small size and potential for modification and functionalization make them ideal for performing specific tasks within the human body.
