Pursuant to paragraph 74(b) of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999 (CEPA 1999), the Ministers of Environment and of Health have conducted a screening assessment of two micro-organism ...

Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI) is a powerful analytical technique that provides spatially preserved detection and quantification of analytes in ...

An ensemble of in vitro cardiac tissue models has been developed over the past several decades to aid our understanding of complex cardiovascular disorders using a reductionist approach. These ...

Vascular endothelial cells, forming the inner wall of the blood vessels, participate in the body’s pathological and physiological processes of immunity, tumors, and infection. In response to an ...

The leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide is lung cancer with an annual death rate of 1.59 million (Stewart, 2014). Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) constitutes more than 80% of the disease, with ...

Cell and protein arrays have demonstrated remarkable utility in the high-throughput evaluation of biological responses; however, they lack the complexity of native tissue and organs. Here we spotted ...

Designing of biologically active scaffolds with optimal characteristics is one of the key factors for successful tissue engineering. Recently, hydrogels have received a considerable interest as ...

Background and Purpose— MicroRNAs (miRNA) are single-stranded short RNA molecules that regulate gene expression by either degradation or translational repression of mRNA. Although miRNAs control a ...

Microscale technologies are emerging as powerful tools for tissue engineering and biological studies. In this review, we present an overview of these technologies in various tissue engineering ...
