As a new approach of establishing novel product lines and generating feedbacks and potential interests early on, Allele Biotech has started disclosing its intended/ongoing research plan on AlleleBlogs or through AlleleNews.

Randox Life Sciences is proud to announce the launch of its new and improved website.  The new look site is easy to navigate and allows customers to purchase any of life science products online  Please find attached the press release along with our logo and a screen shot of the new website.  I would be most grateful if you would consider us for inclusion in your publication. 

Bone remodelling in vertebrates is coordinately regulated by the opposing effects of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β). PTH couples the processes of bone resorption and formation by enforcing simultaneous internalization of TGF-β type II receptor (TβRII) and PTH type 1 receptor (PTH1R), which attenuates both TGF-β and PTH signalling in vivo.

The vaccines were produced much more quickly than the current method using eggs.  Insect cell system also provides less allergy effects and better overall safety.

UK grants patent for iPS cells to a Japanese research group…but not Yamanaka!  US allows iPS cells to an American lab…but not Thomson!

Selecting for high affinity and specificity binding molecules such as antibodies, aptamers, or antibody fragments/equivalents is a demanding process and any major progress should almost certainly result in interest from pharmaceutical companies looking for new drug candidates.

MicroRNAs interact with Argonaute proteins to guide posttranscriptional gene silencing. Eiring et al. (2010) now show that miR-328 has a second function, acting as a decoy by binding to hnRNP E2 and lifting its translational repression of an mRNA involved in myeloid cell differentiation. (Cell)

A coveted mainstay in any life-sciences toolbox, green fluorescent protein (GFP) has replaced many dyes in biological studies because it is non-toxic and can function as a reporter of expression when attached to a gene of interest.

We started 2009's vendor show series at Salk, it would be only appropriate to also complete it there, one of favorite places!   Check our our new products, new look, and new sales person--introducing Christiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiina!  Go say hello to her and give her some encouragement while enjoying food and coffee!

By measuring 163 metabolite concentrations and ratios in serum and use them as metabolic traits, SNPs were identified that provided what Illig et al. called “genetically determined metabotypes”.
