Improving Response to FLT3 Inhibitors-BCL2 the Rescue?

This protocol describes an effective method for quantifying the difference in DNA damage induced by type I and type II inhibitors in FLT3 mutant cells through the application of the comet...

We describe a technique to maintain oxygenation and ventilation using an endotracheal tube inserted nasally to the level of the naso-pharynx while sealing the mouth and nares for successful positive pressure...

Newcastle disease virus (NDV) has been extensively studied in the last few years in order to develop new vectors for vaccination and therapy, among others. These studies have been possible due to techniques to rescue recombinant virus from cDNA, such as those we describe...

Certain biochemical processes, such as embryonic development and cell growth regulation, depend on the repression of specific genes. DNA binding proteins known as eukaryotic transcription inhibitors regulate the repression of gene expression in eukaryotes. The presence of these inhibitors at the required location and time in the cell is triggered by the presence of hormones and additional signals from other cells.
Eukaryotic transcription inhibitors usually contain two distinct domains, a...

Capsulorhexis is an important step in phacoemulsification surgery. A surgeon creates a continous curvilinear tear on the anterior lens capsule by controlling the tearing vector forces. A peripherally extended tear is a serious complication. This video demonstrates a novel technique of rescuing capsular radial tear out using a...

In this video, we describe a method to identify the small-molecule kinase inhibitors that modulate the apoptosis of self-reactive CD4+CD8+ double-positive immature thymocytes. Apoptosis is induced in the double-positive thymocytes by activating them with anti-CD3- and anti-CD28-coated magnetic beads; this is followed by a small-molecule inhibitor treatment and flow cytometry analysis to detect if the inhibitors modulate the apoptotic marker...
