natural killer cells. Introduction Natural killer (NK) cells‚ a variety of granular lymphocyte‚ are the first line of defence against infections and cancer. First identified by their ability to “naturally” kill tumour cells previously unrecognised by the host (Kiessling et al.‚ 1975)‚ these bone marrow-derived innate killers were later recognised as a sepa-rate lymphocyte lineage‚ obtaining both cytotoxicity and cytokine-producing effector functions (Trinchi-eri‚ 1989). NK cells circulate and

medicine is the use of herbs or plants for their therapeutic or medicinal value. This practice is becoming popular nowadays due to the use of natural ingredients rather than synthetic ones. Though only a few people believe in its effectiveness‚ many researches have been conducted so that other people will start to trust its efficacy. The research is all about the ten (10) herbal plants that the researchers have chosen with their corresponding treatment. These herbal plants were chosen based on its availability

Cell Respiration Respiration is the process by which organisms burn food to produce energy. The starting material of cellular respiration is the sugar glucose‚ which has energy stored in its chemical bonds. You can think of glucose as a kind of cellular piece of coal: chock-full of energy‚ but useless when you want to power a stereo. Just as burning coal produces heat and energy in the form of electricity‚ the chemical processes of respiration convert the energy in glucose into usable form. Adenosine

Genetically Modified Plants and Animals Why should we know about the genetic modification of plants and animals? In this world today we are seeing different labels on our foods but does anyone even really know what they mean? For example what is the difference between a regular tomato and an organic tomato? We should know what foods we are consuming and how they affect our bodies. I believe that more regulations should be put into place by the Food and Drug Administration so that we are better

Introduction The current method of cell expansion using T25 flasks for human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) have been proven to be extremely time and space consuming‚ labour intensive and difficult for scale-up (Minimal of 200 T25 flasks needed). It is estimated 2.8x108 - 5.6x108 undifferentiated hESCs are required by the end of the expansion stage for the process to work‚ as at least 5x107 cells of well differentiated post-mitotic Nrl+/Crx+ precursors are needed for transplant (Maclaren et al‚ 2006)
