Apoptosis is important for embryonic development, tissue homeostasis, and removal of cells with (potentially transforming) DNA lesions or other types of injuries. Functional genomics screens performed to unravel apoptotic signaling cascades...
Engineering three-dimensional collagen matrices to provide contact guidance during 3D cell migration [0.03%]
工程构建三维胶原矩阵以在三维细胞迁移过程中提供接触导向

The modulus of elasticity of the extracellular matrix (ECM), often referred to in a biological context as "stiffness," naturally varies within the body, e.g., hard bones and soft tissue. Moreover, it has been found to have a profound effect...

Functional analysis of platelet intracellular structures requires isolation and purification of these cellular compartments. With regard to the function of platelets, both, dense (delta) and alpha granules are relevant target structures. Ho...
Isolation of Legionella-containing vacuoles by immuno-magnetic separation [0.03%]

The environmental bacterium Legionella pneumophila naturally parasitizes free-living amoebae. L. pneumophila is an opportunistic human pathogen that grows in macrophages, thus causing a life-threatening pneumonia termed Legionnaires' diseas...
Methods for monitoring dynamics of pulmonary RSV replication by viral culture and by real-time reverse transcription-PCR in vivo: Detection of abortive viral replication [0.03%]

The elevated blood glucose following a meal is cleared by insulin-stimulated glucose entry into muscle and fat cells. The hormone increases the amount of the glucose transporter GLUT4 at the plasma membrane in these tissues at the expense o...
Quantitative analysis of endocytosis and turnover of epidermal growth factor (EGF) and EGF receptor [0.03%]
表皮生长因子及表皮生长因子受体的内吞与更新定量分析

Binding of epidermal growth factor (EGF) to the EGF receptor (EGFR) initiates signal transduction, ultimately leading to altered gene expression. Ligand-activated EGFR is also rapidly internalized and then targeted to lysosomes for degradat...
