Rapid detection of a cancer biomarker by a microfluidic chip
Researchers from LAAS-CNRS, in collaboration with the Toulouse Cancer Research Centre, have shown how μLAS microfluidic chip technology can concentrate and measure microRNAs, cancer biomarkers, in less than a minute. MicroRNAs (miRs) are short fragments of RNA that...
The cell signalling enzymes PI3Kalpha and PI3Kβ play major roles in the body.
PI3Ks are important molecules, that, by adding a tag on a lipid, induce messages (also called signals) in the cells. They are hence key regulators of cell signalling. In the animals of higher order, such as Humans, PI3Ks come in different flavours. In particular, the...
