Cell-based assays to identify novel retinoprotective agents. [PDF]

MethodsX, 2020
Degeneration of the retina can lead ultimately to devastating irreversible vision loss, such as in inherited retinitis pigmentosa and age-related macular degeneration. Currently there is no cure to prevent retinal degeneration. Quantitative cell-based assays can be used to test potential drugs that prevent the death of retinal cells.

Polystyrene Topography Sticker Array for Cell-Based Assays. [PDF]

Recent Prog Mater, 2020
Cells can respond to different topographical cues in their natural microenvironment. Hence, scientists have employed microfabrication techniques and materials to generate culture substrates containing topographies for cell-based assays. However, one of the limitations of custom topographical platforms is the lack of adoption by the broad research ...

Cordycepin attenuates migration and invasion of HSC-4 oral squamous carcinoma cells through autophagy-dependent FAK/Akt and MMP2/MMP9 suppression

Journal of Dental Sciences, 2022
Background/purpose: Cordycepin has been proposed anti-cancer effects, however, it is unclear whether and how cordycepin affects oral squamous carcinoma cell (OSCC) migration and invasion.

Monitoring fusion kinetics of viral and target cell membranes in living cells using a SARS-CoV-2 spike-protein-mediated membrane fusion assay

STAR Protocols, 2022
Summary: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike protein mediates membrane fusion between the virus and the target cells, triggering viral entry into the latter.
