Cell metabolism heavily relies on the redox reactions that inevitably generate reactive
oxygen species (ROS). It is now well established that ROS fluctuations near basal levels …

Redox reactions are of high fundamental and practical interest since they are involved in
both normal physiology and the pathogenesis of various diseases. However, this area of …

Detection of thymidine analogues after their incorporation into replicating DNA represents a
powerful tool for the study of cellular DNA synthesis, progression through the cell cycle, cell …

Oxidative stress, a state of disrupted redox signaling, reactive oxygen species (ROS)
overproduction, and oxidative cell damage, accompanies numerous brain pathologies, including …

A comprehensive overview of the interplay between glucocorticoids (GCs) and adult hippocampal
neurogenesis (AHN) is presented, particularly, in the context of a diseased brain. The …

Green fluorescent genetically encoded calcium indicators (GECIs) are the most popular tool
for visualization of calcium dynamics in vivo. However, most of them are based on the EGFP …

Background Salivary cell secretion (SCS) plays a critical role in blood feeding by medicinal
leeches, making them of use for certain medical purposes even today. Results We annotated …

The rise of antibiotic resistance has necessitated the development of alternative strategies
for the treatment of infectious diseases. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), components of the …

Laser microdissection is a method that allows for the isolation of homogenous cell populations
from their native niches in tissues for downstream molecular assays. This method is …

Tissue-specific somatic stem cells are characterized by their ability to reside in a state of
prolonged reversible cell cycle arrest, referred to as quiescence. Maintenance of a balance …
