In recent years, the field of gene editing has experienced groundbreaking advancements, with CRISPR/Cas9 emerging as a powerful technology for precise genetic manipulation. Among various delivery systems, lentiviruses have garnered significant attention due to their ability to introduce genetic material into both dividing and non-dividing cells, making them an ideal vehicle for gene therapy ...
In this white paper, Predictive Oncology (POAI) highlights a recent successful project in partnership with the University of Michigan Natural Products Discovery Core (NPDC) through the ACE program. The ACE program supports academic researchers in their early drug discovery and development initiatives by providing access to the POAI proprietary active machine learning platform and ...
In the realm of pharmacology and drug development, the assessment of drug permeability is essential. One of the most widely recognized in vitro models for evaluating the intestinal absorption of compounds is the Caco-2 permeability assay. This assay plays a pivotal role in understanding how drugs are absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract and aids in predicting their bioavailability. Background ...
Glucosinolates are important secondary metabolites found predominantly in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, and radish. These sulfur-containing compounds play a dual role in plant biology and human health, making them a fascinating subject of study in fields like agriculture, nutrition, and medicine. Their ability to protect plants from pests and diseases, along ...
Nuclear receptors are a class of proteins that play a vital role in cellular communication, gene expression, and overall homeostasis within the body. They act as transcription factors, responding to various stimuli, including hormones, nutrients, and even environmental agents. Due to their crucial roles in physiological and pathological processes, nuclear receptors have emerged as significant ...
