  • UI discovery of relationship between proteins may impact development of cancer therapies

    Updated: 2011-04-15 18:33:05
    By identifying a surprising association of two intracellular proteins, University of Iowa researchers have laid the groundwork for the development of new therapies to treat B cell lymphomas and autoimmune disease. The researchers studied mouse B cells expressing the viral protein Latent Membrane Protein 1 (LMP1), which has been implicated in several types of cancer because [...]

  • Breakthrough Research in Cryopreservation

    Updated: 2011-04-06 18:31:36
    If you’re in the field of cryopreservation, you know that most cells need to be frozen slowly and most cannot survive the freezing process unless a cryoprotective agent, such as dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), is added. How DMSO helps, and why slow freezing is better is still hotly debated, as up to now, it’s not been possible to probe directly into the intracellular level of the cell.However, we recently came across a publication in the Journal of Biophysics “Spatial distrib...
