Cryopreservation – News and Features

Research has shown how cells in atherosclerosis share mutational patterns with tumor biology, with a large proportion of the cells derived from one single mutated cell that had undergone many rounds of cell division.

A study by the University of Queensland has revealed that the TAS2R38 gene, which controls bitterness sensitivity, is linked to various health conditions including bipolar disorder and chronic kidney disease.

University of Connecticut School of Medicine study published in PNAS introduces Healthspan Proteomic Score as a biomarker for healthy aging.

Estradiol, the most potent form of estrogen during a woman’s reproductive years, may help protect the brain as it ages, as a new study finds that women with a longer reproductive span showed signs of slower brain aging.

Dr. Jennifer Man, director of Science at UK Biocentre, explains why biological sample storage must evolve to prevent costly research losses and meet new regulations with automated, climate-friendly systems.

Researchers have developed a novel framework for analyzing large-scale metabolomic data, marking a major advancement in the precision and depth of metabolic profiling.

A research team at the University of Würzburg has gained new insights into the development of kidney tumors in young children. These enable a better risk assessment and could form the basis for targeted screening and improved early detection.

The work, published in JCI Insight, marks the first time a microRNA has been shown to both indicate and potentially maintain small blood vessel function in the kidney following injury.

A new method uses magnetic beads to hold molecules in place, keeping the sample intact and reducing sample loss by a thousandfold to improve the utility of cryo-EM.

Scientists aiming to advance cancer diagnostics have developed a machine learning tool that is able to identify metabolism-related molecular profile differences between patients with colorectal cancer and healthy people.
