Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the deadliest cancers worldwide. Despite extensive research in the field, new therapies targeting CRC are in urgent need. CRC is a highly heterogeneous disease with high levels of intra- and inter-patient heterogeneity. Ca ...

Organoids allow the recapitulation of intestinal homeostasis and cancerogenesis in vitro; however, RNA sequencing (RNA-seq)-based methods for drug screens are missing. We develop targeted organoid sequencing (TORNADO-seq), a high-throughput, high-content d ...

The form and structure of biological tissues define their function. The emergence of tissue morphology during development is one of the wonders of nature. Cells mechanically probe and manipulate their surroundings while constructing structures from the ext ...

An increase of oxygen saturation within blood bags and metabolic dysregulation occur during storage of red blood cells (RBCs). It leads to the gradual exhaustion of RBC antioxidant protective system and, consequently, to a deleterious state of oxidative st ...

One of the long-standing goals in the field of tissue engineering is the fabrication of de novo tissues or even organs to provide better tissue models for basic research and drug discovery, and to alleviate a shortage of donor organs in the future. Researc ...

Benchmarking is a crucial step in evaluating virtual screening methods for drug discovery. One major issue that arises among benchmarking data sets is a lack of a standardized format for representing the protein and ligand structures used to benchmark the ...

Bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) was introduced a decade ago as a method to monitor alpha-synuclein (alpha-syn) oligomerization in intact cells. Since then, several alpha-syn BiFC cellular assays and animal models have been developed based o ...

Drug discovery is a complex, multistep process, in which many challenges need to be overcome at each stage, from the discovery of a biomolecular target to the ensuring of the efficacy and safety of a compound in humans. Today's analytical methods allow ten ...

Macrocycles provide an attractive modality for drug development, but generating ligands for new targets is hampered by the limited availability of large macrocycle libraries. We have established a solution-phase macrocycle synthesis strategy in which three ...

In view of the steadily increasing number of chemical compounds used in various products and applications, high-throughput toxicity screening techniques can help meeting the needs of 21st century risk assessment. Zebrafish (Danio rerio), especially its ear ...
