Calcium Activated Cl- Channel in HEK 293 Cells (102-009)
Ion Channels play a crucial role in many diseases, most notably in cystic fibrosis. A calcium-activated pathway for Cl- may play an important role in disease severity. However, little is known of the physiological and pharmacological properties of this ion channel.
To study this protein, Dr. Cuppoletti has transfected HEK 293 cell line with a human...

A stable cell line expressing Human L-type cardiac calcium channel alpha 1C clone (100-058)
A number of Ca2+ channel genes have been cloned in the past decade. Expression of these genes for the purpose of studying function has been achieved in Xenopus oocytes and later, in various mammalian cells.
We have introduced the human Ca2+ channel alpha 1C subunit cDNA into human embryonic kidney cells (HEK293) via DNA-mediated gene transfer procedure....

One Step Digestion of Nucleic Acids to Nucleosides (118-043)
The analysis of RNA, both oligomeric and monomeric, occurs primarily through mass spectrometry (MS). Over three decades of RNA analysis via MS has resulted in a plethora of knowledge regarding RNA. However, as the MS techniques have improved, the methods for prepping RNA for analysis have not. A method developed over 20 years ago still remains the primary...

Nanopipette Device for Label-Free, Rapid Liquid Cancer Biopsy (117-042)
Early cancer detection is crucial for survival. Many cancer screening methods and biopsies, though, require complex and invasive surgical procedures causing cancers to go undetected during the early stages. Exosomes, or cell-secreted nanoscale extracellular vesicles, contain biomarkers that indicate cancers and other diseases, and they are constantly...

Mouse Strain B6.FVB-Tg(GNAT2-Dta)98Wwk/J (108-112)
Mice hemizygous for this "Trc-Tox176" transgene (also called "h-GNAT2pro-DTA") are viable and fertile. Expression of diphtheria toxin (DTA) from the transgene is similar to that of endogenous GNAT2, leading to ablation of both rod and cone photoreceptor development in the ventral retina (the abnormality is a result of abnormal cellular...

RU360 (106-087)
A cell-permeable oxygen-bridged dinuclear ruthenium amine complex that has been shown to bind to mitochondria with high affinity (Kd = 340 pM). Specifically blocks Ca2+ uptake into mitochondria in vitro (IC50 = 184 pM) and in situ in intact myocytes (complete block after incubation with ~10 M of Ru360 for 30 min). Does not affect other cellular Ca2+...
