Type I collagen is the most abundant collagen of the human body, and is present in bone, skin, tendon, and other connective tissues. Type I collagen is the major component and the primary determinant of tensile strength of the extracellular matrix and therefore an ideal substrate for tissue-culture to enhance differentiation, adhesion, proliferation, and migration […]
The aging of today’s global population is accelerating, leading to a higher incidence of some diseases related to aging, such as chronic diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, cardiovascular diseases, etc. However, people at the same age may show different disease expressions, and one possible factor is due to differences in the aging process of different individuals, which means that […]
The ability to overexpress genes in microorganisms has revolutionized the field of synthetic biology. Gene overexpression involves the production of large quantities of target proteins by increasing the transcription and translation of the gene of interest. This technique has been applied in the engineering of microorganisms to produce a wide range of products, including biofuels, chemicals, […]
In the field of scientific research, understanding and studying emotion-related behaviors in animals plays a crucial role in advancing the knowledge of the human brain and mental health. Animal models can help researchers better comprehend animal behaviors, and rodent models in particular have become important objects for understanding the mechanisms of emotional behaviors and exploring new treatments […]
The true age of a person can be determined by measuring DNA methylation levels, a phenomenon known as age acceleration when there is a discrepancy between the predicted age and the actual age. This can be used as a marker of human aging and has been found to be possibly associated with cancer risk. Methylation-Based […]
