Creative Biolabs introduces its range of TNFRSF9-related antibody reagents.The growing interest in TNFRSF9 (also known as CD137, 4-1BB) stems from its role as a co-stimulatory receptor on T cells...

Blood biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease pathology are altered both preclinically and throughout the disease's symptomatic phase, and unique biomarkers may be the best way to diagnose or monitor...

Organoids, 3D "micro-organ models" that are prepared from different types of stem cells through self-organization, can simulate the structure and function of native organs. Organoids represent an...

AIDS, Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, is a malignant infectious disease with a very high fatality rate caused by HIV (human immunodeficiency virus). HIV invades the human body and can destroy the...

Targeted therapies that selectively bind and act through molecules expressed on the surface of cancer cells represent a major advance in cancer treatment because they are more effective and better...

Gene editing technology, represented by CRISPR/Cas9, has greatly accelerated the development of gene therapy, bringing hope to many genetic diseases that otherwise had no cure.In June 2021, Intellia...

Nanotechnology advancements have enabled the design of drugs that can be absorbed or bonded on the surface of nanoparticles, encapsulated in the core, or dissolved inside the particle matrix, allowing...

On March 31, Immutep announced that its LAG-3 fusion protein eftilagimod alpha (Efti, also known as IMP321), in combination with MSD's heavyweight PD-1 inhibitor Keytruda, has yielded positive interim...

Tumors with brain metastases often have a poor survival prognosis, including patients with a variety of high-risk pediatric tumors, such as high-risk neuroblastoma. In addition to the currently used...

A major study led by Professor Jennifer Doudna, a pioneer in the field of gene editing, has recently been published online in the leading academic journal Cell, and has attracted the attention of many...

In preclinical models of SCLC, CD47 blockade was found to be effective in enhancing the local antitumor effects of radiotherapy. "Radiotherapy in combination with CD47 blockade elicits a...

Alzheimer's disease is a neurodegenerative disease with insidious onset and progressive development, of which the clinical features are mainly cognitive impairment, abnormal mental behavior, and...

PROTAC is a novel type of drug that is different from antibodies and traditional small molecule inhibitors, consisting of a linker and two warheads. One end of the PROTAC molecule binds to the target...

Craig Crews et al. presented the notion of PROTAC (Proteolysis Targeting Chimera) in 2001 to reduce protein levels instead of blocking protein function by exploiting the body's naturally occurring...
