From disease to healing: Exploring the roles of pericytes
They are multipotent, interact closely with endothelial cells, and are involved in immunosurveillance: the heterogeneous group of pericytes. These cells build the wall of blood vessels, and play a crucial role in the formation and maintenance of the vasculature. Due to their involvement in various pathophysiologies such as tumor angiogenesis, scientists are beginning to exploit their potential for therapeutic approaches….

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?…

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)….

Immuno-oncology
A new in vitro strategy Immuno-oncology is a unique combination of oncology and immunology. By activating or amplifying the body’s natural defenses, immuno-oncology aims to boost the immune system to fight cancer better. Targeted antibodies or immunomodulators are well-known immunotherapies; adoptive cell therapy using CAR-T or TCR cells is particularly important,…
