Two new compounds having HDAC (histone deacetylase) inhibition capability have shown the effect of inducing re-differentiation of human brain and breast cancer cells both in vitro and in vivo. More
The University of Edinburgh has perfected a genetic engineering strategy in mouse embryonic stem cells to replace large regions of mouse chromosomal sequences (>100kb) with the corresponding human syntenic region. More
A number of specific PPLs, a group of prenylflavanone compounds, some novel, were isolated, identified and tested at as low as 0.04 μg/mL to be able to increase survival of neural stem cells, to promote neuronal growth with lengthening of neurite More
