One of the strongest signals of positive selection in humans surrounds the V370A variant of Ectodysplasin A receptor (EDAR). However, its phenotypic consequences and impetus for selection are not well understood. Kamberov et al. nail down when it originated and, using transgenic mice, delineate its phenotypic impacts.

Establishment, Culture and Freezing of Human and Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells: a Protocol Guide

Studies of the biology of human embryonic stem cells (hES cells) have developed rapidly over the past nine years since the first reports of their derivation. They clearly offer enormous potential, not only for regenerative medicine, but also for drug discovery and toxicology, human developmental biology and cancer research. Realizing these potentials a better understanding of the fundamental as...

Expression of an Innate Immune Element (Mouse Hepcidin-1) in Baculovirus Expression System and the Comparison of Its Function with Synthetic Human Hepcidin-25

Hepcidin is an innate immune element which decreases the iron absorption from diet and iron releasing from macrophage cell. In contrast to the chemical iron chelators, there has been limited effort applied to the specific use of hepcidin as a new drug for decreasing the iron overload. Hepcidin is produced in different biological systems. For instance, E-coli is used for human hepcidin expressio...
