The mouse is commonly used as experimental animals in scientific research, but due to their small size and thin blood vessels, blood collection is difficult, which in turn affects the quality of blood collection. ELK Biotechnology briefly summarizes the common methods of blood collection from mou
Definition Definition 1: Mainly produced by activated monocytes/macrophages, can kill and inhibit tumor cells, promote neutrophil phagocytosis, resist infection, cause fever, induce hepatocyte acute phase protein synthesis, and promote myeloid leukemia cells to macrophages, Phage differentiation,
Introduction of PCR technology Polymerase chain reaction (polymerase chain reaction, PCR) is a technique for enzymatic amplification of specific DNA fragments in vitro, invented by Kary Mullis and colleagues in 1985. The application of thermostable Taq DNA polymerase and the invention and improve
Discovery of the lysosome In 1949, de Duve, a scientist at the Institute of Cytopathology in Brussels, Belgium, homogenized rat liver tissue and isolated various organelles with a view to identifying those related to enzymes of glucose metabolism, and hypothesized that a new organelle existed in
Interleukins are a very important genetic group of cytokines. As of 2022, 40 members have been recognized; they play an important role in a series of processes such as the maturation, activation, proliferation and immune regulation of immune cells.In addition, interleukins are involved in a variety
The full name of VEGFA is vascular endothelial growth factor A. Angiogenesis stimulators include a class of cytokines called “antigenic growth factors”, which play a role in stimulating cardiovascular formation. Some angiogenesis-stimulating factors have been found, such as platelet-derived
In 2012, the team of Brent R. Stockwell at Columbia University first proposed a new type of programmed cell death called ferroptosis. Since then, the upsurge of ferroptosis-related research has been increasing year by year. In 2012, the team of Brent R. Stockwell at Columbia University first propose
Pyroptosis Definition and Characteristics Pyroptosis is a new mode of programmed cell death that relies on Gasdermin family proteins for the formation of plasma membrane pores and regulated cell death, often but not always accomplished by activation of inflammatory caspases. Its mor
