Thin film electronics
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)...
Tissue engineering is the use of a combination of cells, engineering and materials methods, and suitable biochemical and physico-chemical factors to improve or replace biological functions. While i...
Prostate cancer also known as carcinoma of the prostate is the development of cancer in the prostate, a gland in the male reproductive system.[1] Most prostate cancers are slow growing; however, so...
Gossypol is also under investigation as a possible chemotherapy drug, especially in its R- state.[citation needed] It is currently believed that gossypol in itself will not kill cancerous cells; ho...
The gastric mucosa is the mucous membrane layer of the stomach which contains the glands and the gastric pits. In humans it is about 1 mm thick and its surface is smooth, soft, and velvety. It cons...
Cardiovascular disease (also called heart disease) is a class of diseases that involve the heart, the blood vessels (arteries, capillaries, and veins) or both.[1] Cardiovascular disease refers t...
Shikimic acid, more commonly known as its anionic form shikimate, is a cyclohexene, a cyclitol and a cyclohexanecarboxylic acid. It is an important biochemical metabolite in plants and microorganis...
Cocaine dependence (or addiction) is a psychological desire to use cocaine regularly. Cocaine overdose may result in cardiovascular and brain damage such as constricting blood vessels in the brain,...
Magnetic nanoparticles are used in an experimental cancer treatment called magnetic hyperthermia [27] in which the fact that nanoparticles heat when they are placed in an alternative magnetic field...
Layer-by-Layer (LbL) deposition is a thin film fabrication technique. The films are formed by depositing alternating layers of oppositely charged materials with wash steps in between. The first imp...
Dendritic cells can be stimulated to activate a cytotoxic response towards an antigen. Dendritic cells, a type of antigen presenting cell, are harvested from a patient. These cells are then either ...
Polydiacetylene
Dendrimers [1] are repetitively branched molecules.[2][3] The name comes from the Greek word δένδρον (dendron), which translates to "tree". Synonymous terms for dendrimer include arborols and casca...
A successive approximation ADC is a type of analog-to-digital converter that converts a continuous analog waveform into a discrete digital representation via a binary search through all possible qu...
Damage to the Bcl-2 gene has been identified as a cause of a number of cancers, including melanoma, breast, prostate, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and lung cancer, and a possible cause of schizoph...

Electric-field sensors
Immune dysregulation is an unrestrained or unregulated immune response. An inappropriately robust, or weak immune response. Immune dysfunction.
Nanocomposite is a multiphase solid material where one of the phases has one, two or three dimensions of less than 100 nanometers (nm), or structures having nano-scale repeat distances between the ...
