ADVANCES IN TRANS-EPITHELIAL ELECTRICAL RESISTANCE (TEER) MONITORING INTEGRATION IN AN INTESTINAL BARRIER-ON-CHIP (IBOC) PLATFORM WITH MICROBUBBLES-TOLERANT ANALYTICAL METHOD

Advances in Trans-Epithelial Electrical Resistance (TEER) monitoring integration in an Intestinal Barrier-on-Chip (IBoC) platform with microbubbles-tolerant analytical method

kicker pro comp 10 Trans-epithelial resistance (TEER) is one of the most widely performed analysis in vitro methods for monitoring barrier tissue development, formation and functional maturation.It is a basic and important tool for the reproduction of an artificial human epithelium.However, in the design and construction of organ on chip devices, t

Lysosomal dysfunction in diabetic cardiomyopathy

Diabetes is a major risk factor for a variety of cardiovascular complications, while diabetic cardiomyopathy, a disease specific to the myocardium independent of vascular lesions, is an important causative factor for increased risk of heart failure and mortality in diabetic populations.Lysosomes have long been recognized as intracellular trash cres

Systems Biology Approaches for the Prediction of Possible Role of Chlamydia pneumoniae Proteins in the Etiology of Lung Cancer.

Accumulating evidence has recently supported the association of bacterial infection with the growth and development of cancers, particularly in organs that are constantly exposed to bacteria such as the lungs, colon, cervical cancer etc.Our in silico study on the proteome of Chlamydia pneumoniae suggests an unprecedented idea of the etiology of lun

Randomized controlled trials of HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment in Africa: results from the Cochrane HIV/AIDS Specialized Register.

INTRODUCTION: To effectively address HIV/AIDS in Africa, evidence on preventing new infections and providing effective treatment is needed.Ideally, decisions on which interventions are effective should be based on evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs).Our previous research described African RCTs of HIV/AIDS reported between 1987 and 200
