Light activated anticancer drug targeted to DNA using cisplatin like sub-units
One of the most effective chemotherapy drugs against cancer is cisplatin because it attaches to cancer DNA and disrupts repair. However, it also kills healthy tissue. Many scientists are creating alternative drugs or cisplatin analogs in attempts to find treatments without side effects. One approach to analog development is light activated drugs, or photodynamic therapy (PDT). Now a Virginia Tech...T cells activated to fight HIV basis for dendritic cell therapeutic vaccine
Having their immune system cells go through a laboratory version of boot camp may help patients win their battle against HIV, believe University of Pittsburgh researchers. In essence, that's the concept behind the development of a novel therapeutic vaccine loaded with a patient's own souped up dendritic cells, which have been galvanized to rally other cells of the immune system in fighting the vi...Reactivated gene shrinks tumors
Many cancers arise due to defects in genes that normally suppress tumor growth. Now, for the first time, MIT researchers have shown that re-activating one of those genes in mice can cause tumors to shrink or disappear. "If we can find drugs that restore p53 function in huma...Dynabeads M-280 Tosylactivated from Dynal Biotech
Description:Ideal for isolation and affinity purification of small components such as proteins and peptides. Hydrophobic, monodisperse magnetic particles (2.8 m in diameter) with p-toluene-sulfonyl (tosyl) groups, further surface activation is not required. Allows easy coupling of antibodies with optimal orientation for affinity purification of proteins. Covalent coupling to primary amino- or sulphydryl grou...Newborn Calf Serum, Heat Inactivated from Sigma-Aldrich

Description:Features Open up new opportunities in ELISA development...PS20 and RS100 preactivated ProteinChip Arrays from Ciphergen
Description:PS10 ProteinChip Arrays are preactivated with carbonyl diimidazole chemistry that covalently binds to free primary amine groups. The PS10 array contains the same binding chemistry as the former PS1 array, but with an updated hydrophobic barrier coating. These arrays are 8 spot chips with 2 mm diameter spots spatially compatible with one column of a standard 96-well microplate (9 mm well pitch). T...CodeLink Activated Slides from GE Healthcare, formerly Amersham Biosciences
Description:...Activated charcoal for poisoning treatment
Activated charcoal, a poison antidote used in emergency rooms for decades, can be easily used in children at home and may help prevent a trip to the hospital. The substance is a fine powder form of processed charcoal that binds to many types of poisons and can keep them from being absorbed into the bloodstream. Stocked by some pharmacies, it can be mixed at home with water, juice or soft drinks,...Stroke victims have new hope with activated protein C
A new study by researchers from the University of Rochester, New York suggests that the activated protein C (APC), a protein with anti-inflammatory and anti-coagulant properties,which until now is being used to treat septic infections, may also help reduce the damage caused by stroke. Researchers who conducted the study on mice found that APC could protect brain cells from the secondary damage as...Distinct Brain Sections Are Activated While Making Risky Decisions
Duke University Medical Center researchers have discovered that distinct regions of the human brain are activated when people are faced with ambiguous choices versus// choices involving only risk. The investigators found the reason behind why people make risky choices, and how such risk-taking can become an addition or lead to compulsive gambling. The study results were published in the journal N...Activated T-Cells Could Help In The Battle Against HIV
Researchers have explained that on altering the immune cells and incorporating it into the vaccine they could develop a therapeutic treatment for AIDS. // Researchers from the University of Pittsburgh have claimed that they are of the belief that if patients with HIV, subject their immune system cells through a laboratory version of boot camp, it could help in their fight against the...Reactivated Genes Cause Tumors to Shrink (or) Disappear
Many cancers arise due to defects in genes that normally suppress tumor growth. Now, for the first time, //MIT researchers have shown that re-activating one of those genes in mice can cause tumors to shrink or disappear. The study offers evidence that the tumor suppressor gene p53 is a promising target for human cancer drugs. "If we can find drugs that restore p53 function...Elmed Hand Activated Monopolar Forceps
