Most single-walled nanotubes (SWNT) have a diameter of close to 1 nanometer, with a tube length that can be many millions of times longer. The structure of a SWNT can be conceptualized by wrapping ...
Zinc-alpha-2-glycoprotein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the AZGP1 gene.[1][2] This gene expresses a soluble protein that stimulates lipolysis, induces a reduction in body fat in mice...

NO-releasing compounds
Angiogenesis is the physiological process through which new blood vessels form from pre-existing vessels. This is distinct from vasculogenesis, which is the de novo formation of endothelial cells f...
LSAMP gene
Hair loss[1] or baldness (technically known as alopecia[2]) is a loss of hair from the head or body. Baldness can refer to general hair loss or androgenic alopecia (male pattern baldness). Some typ...
Neuroregeneration refers to the regrowth or repair of nervous tissues, cells or cell products. Such mechanisms may include generation of new neurons, glia, axons, myelin, or synapses. Neuroregenera...
Polymers for NO delivery
Viral vectors are a tool commonly used by molecular biologists to deliver genetic material into cells. This process can be performed inside a living organism (in vivo) or in cell culture (in vitro)...
Cytokine receptors are receptors that bind cytokines.[1] In recent years, the cytokine receptors have come to demand the attention of more investigators than cytokines themselves, partly because...
Ablation is removal of material from the surface of an object by vaporization, chipping, or other erosive processes. Examples of ablative materials are described below, and include spacecraft mater...
An antigen is any substance that may be specifically bound by components of the immune system (antibody, lymphocytes). The term antigen arises from its ability to induce generation of antibodies (a...
Dendritic cells (DCs) are antigen-presenting cells, (also known as accessory cells) of the mammalian immune system. Their main function is to process antigen material and present it on the cell sur...
Iron nitrosyl hemoglobin
Cancer Listeni/ˈkænsər/, also known as a malignant tumor, is a group of diseases involving abnormal cell growth with the potential to invade or spread to other parts of the body.[1][2] Not all tumo...
Arrestins are a small family of proteins important for regulating signal transduction.
A telomere is a region of repetitive nucleotide sequences at each end of a chromatid, which protects the end of the chromosome from deterioration or from fusion with neighbouring chromosomes. Its n...
