Scintigraphy ("scint") is the use of gamma cameras to capture emitted radiation from internal radioisotopes to create two-dimensional[3] images. SPECT (single photon emission computed tomography...

Angiostatin is a naturally occurring protein found in several animal species, including humans. It is an endogenous angiogenesis inhibitor (i.e., it blocks the growth of new blood vessels), and it ...
Many patients require only a supplementary level of oxygen in the room air they are breathing, rather than pure or near pure oxygen,[12] and this can be delivered through a number of devices depend...
CD7 (Cluster of Differentiation 7) is a human protein encoded by the CD7 gene.[1] This gene encodes a transmembrane protein which is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. This protein is f...
A hemeprotein (or haemprotein; also hemoprotein or haemoprotein), or heme protein, is a metalloprotein containing a heme prosthetic group- an organic compound that allows a protein to carry out sev...
Nucleobases are nitrogen-containing biological compounds (nitrogenous bases) found within nucleotides—the basic building blocks of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA). Nucleobase...
Nitric oxide synthases (EC 1.14.13.39) (NOSs) are a family of enzymes catalyzing the production of nitric oxide (NO) from L-arginine. NO is an important cellular signaling molecule. It helps modula...
PEG-uricase conjugates
The enzyme urate oxidase (UO), or uricase or factor-independent urate hydroxylase, absent in humans, catalyzes the oxidation of uric acid to 5-hydroxyisourate:[1] Uric acid + O2 + H2O → 5-hydrox...
Protein–protein interactions (PPIs) refer to intentional physical contacts established between two or more proteins as a result of biochemical events and/or electrostatic forces. In fact, protei...
As opposed to lentiviruses, adenoviral DNA does not integrate into the genome and is not replicated during cell division. This limits their use in basic research, although adenoviral vectors are oc...

The piwi (sometimes also PIWI; originally P-element induced wimpy testis in Drosophila[2]) class of genes was originally identified as encoding regulatory proteins responsible for maintaining incom...
specialized cells and can divide (through mitosis) to produce more stem cells. They are found in multicellular organisms. In mammals, there are two broad types of stem cells: embryonic stem cells, ...
A liposome is an artificially-prepared spherical vesicle composed of a lamellar phase lipid bilayer. The liposome can be used as a vehicle for administration of nutrients and pharmaceutical drugs.[...
