Anti-Aging Therapy using Immunoglobulins
Applications: IgG Therapy for treating Arterial Stiffness The Problem: As people age, their immune system declines. Immunological dysfunction of B and T cells occurs. Serum IgG concentrations decrease drastically. As a result, aging increases inflammation and endothelial dysfunction, ushering arterial stiffening, thus, systolic hypertension, and,... (read more) -

Knockdown of miR-21 Expression Sensitizes Cancer Cell to Apoptosis Induced by Interferon
The micro RNA, miR-21, is overexpressed in many human cancers, and accumulating evidence indicates that miR-21 has oncogenic activity. Here we report that the cytokine IFNa/b rapidly induced the miR-21 transcript in several human and mouse cell lines. Pathways known to be involved in regulating cell death were identified as downstream targets for miR-21,... (read more) -
Establishing a murine cell line with high human IFNAR1 expression to characterize type I interferon ligand binding
A mouse cell line was established by transfection that stably expresses the human IFNAR1 chain with various portions of the intracellular domain deleted. The cell line can be used in human interferon bioassays such as ligand binding and antiviral assays. (read more)
