Application of Janus Particles in Point-of-Care Testing
Janus particles (JPs), named after the two-faced Roman god, are asymmetric particles with different chemical properties or polarities. JPs have been widely used in the biomedical field in recent years, including as drug carriers for targeted controlled ...

Liquid Crystal Droplet-Based Biosensors: Promising for Point-of-Care Testing
The development of biosensing platforms has been impressively accelerated by advancements in liquid crystal (LC) technology. High response rate, easy operation, and good stability of the LC droplet-based biosensors are all benefits of the long-range ...

Marker-of-self becomes marker-of-senescence [PDF]
In this issue of Blood , Burger et al provide compelling in vitro evidence that phagocytic uptake of aged human erythrocytes is promoted by the marker of self CD47 in complex with the serum factor thrombospondin-1.[1][1] CD47 is expressed on cells of all types and binds and signals to SIRPα ...

What Makes a Marker a Good Marker? [PDF]
To validate if DCX truly predicts neuron recruitment throughout the canary brain, it should correlate to a high degree with established methods for studying neuron recruitment, such as labeling cells with the mitotic marker 5-bromo-2-deoxyuridine (BrdU).

Handling Marker-Marker Linkage Disequilibrium: Pedigree Analysis with Clustered Markers [PDF]
Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are rapidly replacing microsatellites as the markers of choice for genetic linkage studies and many other studies of human pedigrees. Here, we describe an efficient approach for modeling linkage disequilibrium (LD) between markers during multipoint analysis of human pedigrees.

Molecular Pathways Bridging Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration and Psychiatric Disorders
The overlap of symptoms between neurodegenerative and psychiatric diseases has been reported. Neuropsychiatric alterations are commonly observed in dementia, especially in the behavioral variant of frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD), which is the most ...
