Modelling neuroinflammatory phenotypes in vivo.
Inflammation of the central nervous system is an important but poorly understood part of neurological disease. After acute brain injury or infection there is a complex inflammatory response that involves activation of microglia and astrocytes and increased production of cytokines, chemokines, acute phase proteins, and complement factors. Antibodies and

A Model for the Action of Vinblastine in Vivo
A model for the action of vinblastine (VLB) on cells multiplying exponentially in vivo with a generation time, T(G), has been derived. It is based on the assumption that cells attempting to pass through mitosis in the presence of VLB lose their proliferative capacity and that this lethal effect occurs only when the cells are exposed to a concentration ...

Experimental In Vivo Models of Candidiasis [PDF]
Candidiasis is a multifaceted fungal disease including mucosal-cutaneous, visceral, and disseminated infections caused by yeast species of the genus Candida. Candida infections are among the most common human mycoses. Candida species are the third to fourth most common isolates from bloodstream infections in neutropenic or immunocompromised ...

Ischemic Stroke, Lessons from the Past towards Effective Preclinical Models
Ischemic stroke is a leading cause of death worldwide, mainly in western countries. So far, approved therapies rely on reperfusion of the affected brain area, by intravenous thrombolysis or mechanical thrombectomy.

Fracture Healing Research—Shift towards In Vitro Modeling?
Fractures are one of the most frequently occurring traumatic events worldwide. Approximately 10% of fractures lead to bone healing disorders, resulting in strain for affected patients and enormous costs for society. In order to shed light into underlying

Modeling Melanoma In Vitro and In Vivo [PDF]
The behavior of melanoma cells has traditionally been studied in vitro in two-dimensional cell culture with cells adhering to plastic dishes. However, in order to mimic the three-dimensional architecture of a melanoma, as well as its interactions with the tumor microenvironment, there has been the need for more physiologically relevant models.

The Challenging Melanoma Landscape: From Early Drug Discovery to Clinical Approval
Melanoma is recognized as the most dangerous type of skin cancer, with high mortality and resistance to currently used treatments. To overcome the limitations of the available therapeutic options, the discovery and development of new, more effective, and
