An expression vector, otherwise known as an expression construct, is usually a plasmid or virus designed for protein expression in cells. The vector is used to introduce a specific gene into a targ...
A muscle relaxant is a drug which affects skeletal muscle function and decreases the muscle tone. It may be used to alleviate symptoms such as muscle spasms, pain, and hyperreflexia. The term "musc...
Biological structure delivery
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 ...
Drug delivery refers to approaches, formulations, technologies, and systems for transporting a pharmaceutical compound in the body as needed to safely achieve its desired therapeutic effect.
