Embryonic stem cells (ES cells) are pluripotent stem cells derived from the inner cell mass of a blastocyst, an early-stage preimplantation embryo.[1][2] Human embryos reach the blastocyst stage 4–...
In enzymology, a CoA-disulfide reductase (EC 1.8.1.14) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction 2 CoA + NAD(P)+ \rightleftharpoons CoA-disulfide + NAD(P)H + H+ The 3 substrates of this...
Photodynamic therapy (PDT), sometimes called photochemotherapy, is a form of phototherapy using nontoxic light-sensitive compounds that are exposed selectively to light, whereupon they become toxic...
A very long chain fatty acid (VLCFA) is a fatty acid with aliphatic tails longer than 22 carbons. Unlike most fatty acids, VLCFAs are too long to be metabolized in the mitochondria, and must be ...

Light tubes or light pipes are physical structures used for transporting or distributing natural or artificial light for the purpose of illumination, and are examples of optical waveguides. In thei...
Total internal reflection is a phenomenon that happens when a propagating wave strikes a medium boundary at an angle larger than a particular critical angle with respect to the normal to the surfac...
Dyslipidemia is an abnormal amount of lipids (e.g. cholesterol and/or fat) in the blood. In developed countries, most dyslipidemias are hyperlipidemias; that is, an elevation of lipids in the blood...
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...
