Binimetinib inhibits MEK and is effective against neuroblastoma tumor cells with low NF1 expression. [PDF]
BackgroundNovel therapies are needed for children with high-risk and relapsed neuroblastoma. We hypothesized that MAPK/ERK kinase (MEK) inhibition with the novel MEK1/2 inhibitor binimetinib would be effective in neuroblastoma preclinical models ...

Microfluidic Western blotting [PDF]
Rapid, quantitative Western blotting is a long-sought bioanalytical goal in the life sciences. To this end, we describe a Western blotting assay conducted in a single glass microchannel under purely electronic control. The μWestern blot is comprised of multiple steps: sample enrichment, protein sizing, protein immobilization (blotting), and in situ ...

The Reactivity and Allergenic Potential of Hazelnut Peptides
The aim of this paper was to focus on proteins present in some food products, like hazelnuts and to investigate their allergenic potential. Several techniques were used to characterize these extracted proteins, with respect to their composition ...

Lin28A induces energetic switching to glycolytic metabolism in human embryonic kidney cells [PDF]
Background: Loss of a cell’s capacity to generate sufficient energy for cellular functions is a key hallmark of the ageing process and ultimately leads to a variety of important age-related pathologies such as cancer, Parkinson’s disease and ...

Sequence of a putative human housekeeping gene (HK33) localized on chromosome 1 [PDF]
A gene (X33) localized on human chromosome 1 has been detected by crossreaction of its fusion protein with a monospecific antiserum directed against human vitamin-D-binding protein (hDBP; group-specific component).
