Herbicides: lack of regulation leading to adverse outcomes on neonates

Glyphosate, the active ingredient in many widely used herbicides such as Roundup, has long been a subject of environmental and health concerns. While regulatory agencies have historically deemed glyphosate to be safe when used according to label instructions ...

Does Medical Cannabis Reduce Prevalence and Intensity of Suicidal Thoughts?

A British study found that patients prescribed cannabis-based medicinal products (CBMPs) minimize the prevalence and intensity of suicidal thoughts. The 12-month prospective study published in the journal Archives of Suicide Research provides valuable insights ...

Gardenia Compound may Boost Nerve Regeneration

Gardenias are popular flowers worldwide; they include 140 tree and shrub species, and are native to Asia, Africa, and islands in the Pacific. They have also been used in Chinese medicine for thousands of years, to treat a wide variety of disorders. Scientists have now shown that a compound called genipin, which is ...

Antibiotics, Antivirals, Vaccines May Lower Dementia Risk

Drugs, including antibiotics, antivirals, vaccinations, and anti-inflammatory medications, are linked to a lower risk of dementia, found a new study. The corresponding findings were published in Alzheimer's & Dementia: Translational Research & Clinical Interventions. Recent findings show that two ...

Virtual roundtable: Advancing proteomics in clinical research with the combined strengths of mass spectrometry and affinity-based methods

Jochen Schwenk, PhD - Professor in Translational Proteomics, KTH Royal Institute of Technology

Ann-Christine König, PhD. - Staff Scientist Metabolomics and Proteomics Core, Helmholtz Center Munich

Hanno Steen, PhD. - Professor of Pathology, Boston Children's Hospital and Harvard Medical School

Protein biomarker discovery, validation and utilization require technologies that deliver proteome insights with breadth and depth. Liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS), the gold-standard of proteomics, provides unbiased protein coverage and detection of isoforms and post-translational modifications. However, achieving high sensitivity and resolution in complex, clinically relevant ...

Assessing differential expression of protein interactions and RNA by combining isPLA and HCR™ Pro RNA-FISH on the BOND RX automated research stainer

Kendra Ritchie - Field Applications Specialist II - Life Sciences, Leica Biosystems

Joseph Melko, MS - Senior Business Development Associate, MI

Sara Bodbin, PhD - Application Scientist, Navinci

The advent of the spatial omics era has enabled researchers to acquire vast amounts of transcriptomics and proteomics data. The abundance of a transcript, however, does not necessarily display strong correlation with protein expression levels, so a holistic approach to sample analysis is crucial. HCR™ Pro RNA-FISH by Molecular Instruments enables high-resolution, multiplex ...
