For decades, animal models have been the gold standard for preclinical testing of potential drugs. Yet, even the best animal models are not perfect. For example, small rodent species with engrafted ...
Advances in biofabrication and 3D in vitro model systems are transforming biomedical research, drug development, and toxicity testing. However, despite ...
Animal models are established, important tools for preclinical safety and efficacy testing. Companies are advancing more “humanized” models to better reflect human responses, while at the same time ...
Biological assailants like fungi, bacteria, and viruses continuously test natural defenses that have evolved over millennia. Newer and stranger particles that originate from burning fuels, harmful ...
Organ-on-a-chip (OOC) technology aims to more accurately reproduce human physiology in vitro, addressing the limitations of current approaches. This field is advancing rapidly. Image Credit: CN Bio ...
In this webinar, Bryan McQueen will discuss how a novel in vitro model of inflammatory bowel disease paves the way toward scientific discovery and developing cost-effective therapies. Ben Zeskind from ...
For our Spotlight on patient-derived in vitro cell models, we surveyed our audience to find out the latest trends, opinions and behaviors in the field. This infographic summarizes the results from the ...
A small molecule known as 10H-phenothiazine reduced the loss of motor neurons, the nerve cells that are lost in SMA, in ...
Overcoming acquired treatment resistance is one of the major challenges in the fight against cancer. While combination therapies hold promise, their toxicity to healthy tissue remains a major hurdle.
