T cells play a vital role in destroying pathogens and monitoring pathological cells. They are able to distinguish between self-antigens and non-self-antigens by surface T cell receptors (TCRs). Most human T cells express the classical TCRs, which consists of TCRα and TCRβ chains co-expressed with CD3 chains (γ, δ, ε, and ζ). The TCRα and TCRβ chains are composed of a variable (V) and a constant ...

In eukaryotic cells, the 3' end of mRNA is often extended with a poly(A) tail, a sequence of purine nucleotides. The poly(A) tail is a long chain of adenosine nucleotides of variable length. This tail is crucial for mRNA stability, transport, and translation. The analysis of mRNA's 3' poly(A) tail is a vital technique in studying the polyadenylation at mRNA molecules' 3’ ends, with significant ...

The process where proteins separated by electrophoresis are transferred or “blotted” from the gel matrix onto a membrane (usually nitrocellulose or polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF)), followed by subsequent antibody-based detection on the membrane surface, is known as western blot (WB) or immunoblotting. Mtoz Biolabs provides WB analysis ...

Peptidomics refers to the study of all endogenous bioactive peptides in organism, cell, or tissue. Bioactive peptides are biologically active substances involved in various cellular functions within the organism, which include cytokines, growth hormones, and disease-specific degradation fragments of certain proteins in body fluids. ...

The immunopeptidome comprises all short peptides presented on the cell surface by HLA-I and II molecules for T-cell recognition. Immunopeptidomics analysis aims to explore the dynamics and composition of both type I and II immune peptides. Comprehensive characterization of the immunopeptidome aids in developing new therapies for cancer, immune diseases, and infectious diseases. ...

KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes) database is a database used for systematic analysis of metabolic pathways and functions of gene products in cells. KEGG helps to study genes and its expression information as a whole network. KEGG integrates data from genomes, chemical molecules, and biochemical systems, including metabolic pathways (PATHWAY), drugs (DRUG), diseases (DISEASE), gene ...

Aggregation or fragmentation of protein molecules primarily causes variations in molecular size, impacting their biological activity, stability, and their efficacy and safety as pharmaceuticals. In the development and production of biopharmaceuticals, even slight variations in molecular size can reduce drug efficacy or pose safety risks. Thus, precise detection and analysis of these variations ...

Molecular size variability is critically important in biological research and medical applications, serving not only in diagnosis and disease prevention but also in the quality control of bioproducts. Electrophoresis, particularly Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate-Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), is revered as the gold standard for this purpose due to its high sensitivity, ease of operation, ...

Metabolic bone disease encompasses a range of bone disorders caused by congenital or acquired factors that disrupt normal bone metabolism and biochemical states, leading to disorders in bone biochemistry and metabolism. These disorders stem from abnormalities in three key areas: bone resorption, bone growth, and mineral deposition. Increasingly, research has identified numerous cytokines involved ...

To maintain the immune system's homeostasis, multiple control systems are essential for managing infections, inhibiting tumor growth, preventing inflammation, and avoiding autoimmune diseases. T cells are known to be critical in this regulatory process. Specifically, Th3 cells primarily secrete TGF-β along with varying levels of IL-4 and IL-10. Natural regulatory T cells and Tr1 cells can ...

During the tumor formation process, cancer cells release various cytokines and growth factors into the surroundings and reprogram many other types of cells to establish a tumor microenvironment. As a result, tumor tissues almost always contain a large number of endothelial cells, fibroblasts, and infiltrating inflammatory cells, which in turn produce various cytokines. Tumor-derived VEGF acts on ...

Transcriptome sequencing involves sequencing the complete mRNA within cells during specific developmental stages or physiological conditions. This technique aids in studying gene expression levels and gene structure at a comprehensive level, elucidating molecular mechanisms in specific biological processes. It is widely applied in basic research, clinical diagnosis, drug development, and ...

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is secreted within the central nervous system (CNS) and fills in the ventricles, the subarachnoid space of the brain, and the spinal column. CSF's role is to protect the brain from physical impacts. Furthermore, CSF plays a crucial role in the circulation of nutrients and chemicals in the blood and in waste management by actively transporting or facilitating bulk flow ...

Prostaglandins (PG) are a group of lipid compounds with hormone-like effects that exhibit diverse physiological activities in animals. PG are enzymatically derived from fatty acids with 20 carbon atoms and a 5-carbon ring. They belong to a subfamily of eicosanoids and prostanoid class of fatty acid derivatives. PG have two main derivatives: prostacyclin and thromboxane. Prostacyclin is a potent ...

Leukotrienes (LTs) are a group of inflammatory lipid mediators derived from arachidonic acid (AA) via the 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) pathway. A characteristic feature of LTs is that they are produced by leukocytes and share a conjugated triene structure. LTs consist of cysteinylleukotrienes (CysLTs) and leukotriene B4 (LTB4). CysLTs contain a cysteine ring, whereas LTB4 is a noncysteine containing ...
