Five Steps to Writing a Great Scientific Article
Thousands of scientific articles are published each year. It’s a basic series of steps in biomedical research: do experiments, analyze data, publish your results, and repeat. It seems straightforward, but one question remains. How do you write a paper for publication if it’s your first one?
A blank white page, and a silently blinking cursor: How can an empty document be so intimidating?…

Why you should know your human mesenchymal stem cells inside out
Doctors, and patients with chronic diseases, are putting hope into new findings in regenerative medicine that are based on mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) research. As promising as some published results sound, they might be not reproducible – simply due to insufficient authentication and poor handling of cell cultures. Rigorous validation of cell identity is crucial for working with human mesenchymal stem cells – and,…

The right choice of endothelial cells for your vascular research
Human umbilical vein cells (HUVECs) are easy to access, so they have been the major source of primary endothelial cells (ECs) for years. But to study adult vascular pathology, bring your endothelial research to the next level – by choosing adult ECs that more accurately resemble in vitro conditions….

Endothelial Cells
Definition Endothelial cells form the barrier between vessels and tissues (Aman et al., 2016). They control the flow of substances and fluid into and out of a tissue. An impaired function can lead to serious health issues throughout the body. Endothelial cells line blood vessels and lymphatic vessels, they are found exclusively in vascularized tissue (Bautch and Caron,…

CRISPR/Cas9: The Genome Editing Revolution
The genetic code is the blueprint of an organism written on a stable molecule class: deoxyribonucleic acid. With the method CRISPR/Cas9, editing the genetic information has become much easier. This technique is a blessing for basic scientists, as well as for translational researchers such as Dr. Kathleen Börner, who wants to develop a gene therapy for infections caused by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)….

Using 3D Skin Models to Test Cosmetics
Skin is the primary focus of cosmetic research. Since the European Union banned animal testing of cosmetics completely in 2013, three-dimensional skin models have been used to evaluate epidermal and dermal responses to cosmetic formulations. Such models provide a reliable tool to assess the functionality and safety of new cosmetic products….
