A new study maps the biological influences on thousands of plasma proteins, revealing potential disease biomarkers and drug targets, providing hope for more precise, personalized treatments. Study: ...

The protein-building process after plasma donation is way more complex and energy-demanding than most people realize. Your body doesn’t just replace what was lost – it actively manufactures new ...

A study led by researchers at Open Targets, EMBL's European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI), the University of Cambridge and others has identified a set of plasma proteins that could be used to ...

A large, international team of medical researchers has found patterns developing with certain blood plasma protein levels that can lead to the development of sepsis in patients. In their study, ...

Vaccine effectiveness relies on creating a strong antibody response that can be reactivated to fight future infections. Now, researchers from Japan report that antibody-producing cells are destined ...

Blood-based plasma proteomics offers insights into systemic biology, but sample degradation can obscure critical signals. Preanalytical issues, such as delayed plasma processing, platelet activation, ...

Some people’s brains age faster than average, some slower. Scientists quantify this “brain age gap” by subtracting a person’s chronological age from their brain’s biological age. Because aging brains ...

Streck is pleased to announce the launch of Protein Plus BCTTM, a direct draw whole blood collection tube intended for the stabilization of draw-time concentrations of plasma proteins during ambient ...

In the evolutionary history of life, the ability of a cell to separate its inner world from the external environment was an important turning point. The so-called plasma membrane lets cells control ...
