A team of researchers performed quantitation of N-glycans from the human alfa-acid glycoprotein (haGP) that revealed N-glycans as potential biomarkers for pancreatic cancer. hAGP is an N-linked glycoprotein (single polypeptide) with 183 amino acids and molecular weight 41 kDa. hAGP contains about 45 % of carbohydrate …
According to a recent study, interleukin-22 can promote stem-cell-mediated regeneration of the intestinal epithelium. The present study was carried out by a team of researchers and has been published on Nature. The generation of the epithelial layers is one of the critical problems that prevent the …
A new insight on fat cell metabolism has been discovered. Researchers from the University of California, San Deigo have studied the fat cells (adipocytes) from patients with diabetes and obesity on the molecular level and found something different. Adipose tissues which are also called fat cells …

Scientists have created a new way of targeted drug delivery through genetic engineering. They have genetically engineered a diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana. Though there are many ways of targeted drug delivery that can be used to kill cancer cells selectively while keeping the healthy cells unaffected. There …
