Dopamine Identified as Key PlayerOurMu Opioid Receptor antibody is used to show that blocking dopamine decreases morphine tolerance:Wen-Ling Dai, Feng Xiong, Bing Yan, Zheng-Yu Cao, Wen-Tao Liu, Ji-Hua Liu1, Bo-Yang Yu. Blockade of neuronal dopamine D2 receptor attenuates morphine tolerance in mice spinal cord. Scientific Reports 6, Article number: 38746 (2016). doi:10.1038/srep38746.Images: (A) Double immunofluorescence staining showed that MOR (green) and D2DR (red) were co-localized in the mice spinal cord (20X magnification). Chronic morphine treatment increased the co-localization of MOR and D2DR in the spinal cord, a...

Neuromics Cornerstone
Human Primary + Stem Cells and 3-D Tissue Like ModelsWe are pleased by growing demand for our" hard to find " primary cells and 3-D BBB model. These are proving to be engines for drug discovery and toxicology assays.We have have the capabilities isolate cells from healthy human donors. We then grow and characterize the cells and cryo-preserve in vials of 500,000 cells. They are now ready to culture.We are increasingly determining types of cells to add to our growing catalog by meeting the specific demand of our clients. For example, our addition of primary humanschwann cells andmicroglia happened, because they were ne...

Fatty Acids and IBD and Colitis
The Dangers of a High Fatty Acid DietsOur westernized high-fat diet (HFD) is associated with the development of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), Colitis and other intestinal related diseases and cancers. Here one the root causes is identified to elevated production of pro-inflammatory cytokine-IL-1 β by macrophages. It is suspected that HFD sets off an autoimmune like cascade.This cascade is triggered by NLRP3 inflammasomes. OurApoptosis Kit-Magic Red-Real Time Cathepsin B is used to demonstrate these inflammasomes are activated via Cathepsin B Release:Shengnan Zhao, Zizhen Gong1, Jiefei Zhou1, Chunyan Tian, Yanhong Gao,...

New Schwann Cells Now $695/500,000 Cells
Priced to Buy and Try!Schwann cells play important roles in the development, function, and regeneration of peripheral nerves. When an axon is dying, the Schwann cells surrounding it aid in its digestion, leaving an empty channel formed by successive Schwann cells, through which a new axon may then grow from a severed end.We want to make it easy for you to buy and try theseverdant cells. Also, we have a full refund or replacement should they not meet your expectations.Schwann Cells in cultureQuestions?

Detecting Expression of CAS9
Gain Trust That Your Gene Editing is on TargetCRISPR/Cas9 is a hot genome-editing technology. However, the high frequency of off-target activity is a major issue.One way to make sure CAS9 is being properly expressed is using markers against related proteins.We are please to introduce ourCAS9 markers. We plan on adding to these in the near future.Image: Transfected Hek293 cells overexpressing the N-terminal 1-608 amino acids of S. pyogenes Cas9 . The cells were stained with MO22174 in red, and these cells also appear yellow since we counterstained with our rabbit Cas9 antibody, RA22126 to the same constr...

Co-Cultures and Tox Assays
Data End Points DifferOur clients continue to use ourcells and kits for co-culturing. The goal is to develop the mostin vivolike results possible.They find that single cell vs multi cell type co-cultures drive different data sets.At each dose, the results vary and as the dose of Bis1 increases this variation increases.We welcome your questions, input and feedback on our co-cultures.

Canniboids and Pain Relief
Could The CB1-TRPV1 Crosstalk be a TargetOur pain marker-TRPV1-was recently referenced in an interesting study. Here researchers suggest that spatial distribution of the CB1 receptor and TRPV1 contributes to the complexity of their functional interaction.They conclude:" Therefore, in order to utilise the analgesic potential of endogenous anandamide fully in PSN, ways to interfere with the mechanisms, through which the CB1 receptor promotes anandamide-responsiveness and sensitisation of TRPV1, must be identified. Due to the co-expression of TRPV1 and the CB1 receptor in various areas of the brain, the CB1 receptor – TRPV1...
