A study uncovers that crab immune cells can transform into neural cells, enhancing our understanding of how crustaceans ...

In their ongoing search for effective small-molecule inhibitors of focal adhesion kinase (FAK), researchers at Beijing Normal University and collaborators started from a promising lead compound that ...

Laminin 521 (Cat. No. GMP-LA5H24) successfully maintained rapid expansion of human iPSCs, enabling cell passaging after just ...

A new study published in Nature Structural and Molecular Biology offers groundbreaking evidence that gut bacteria can ...

A research team has identified a molecular mechanism that coordinates the operation of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) ...

Mussels, for instance, secrete adhesive proteins to attach themselves to wet surfaces, while frogs have uniquely structured toe pads that create capillary and hydrodynamic forces for adhesion.

3 For example, in a 2021 study, researchers developed a novel bio-adhesive inspired by mussel proteins for medical applications under various pH levels and wet conditions. They created recombinant ...

Mussels produce several adhesive proteins to attach to the reef underwater. These proteins contain an unusual amino acid, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine, which exhibits a pendant catechol group. Catechols ...

Because barnacles cling to underwater metal surfaces, researchers at Nanyang Technological University investigated whether the crustaceans’ adhesive proteins could form an impenetrable ...

Professor Hyung Joon Cha’s research team members, pioneers in applying mussel adhesive proteins for medical adhesives, have taken a step further with the development of CUBAP. This adhesive is not ...

Scientists develop novel underwater bio-adhesive patches with mussel adhesive protein. The field of adhesives is diverse, catering to a wide range of applications from everyday uses like paper and ...
