TL;DR: A way to measure the changing levels of a specific messenger RNA in living cells is opened by examining whether messenger RNA for basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) could be visualized specifically by a fluorescent probe in live cells.
TL;DR: The fluorogenic assay using TNO211 is sensitive and can detect MMP activity in culture medium from endothelial cells and untreated synovial fluid from RA and OA patients, and control subjects.
TL;DR: The synthesis of the fluorogenic renin substrate and its application in assays of renin activity are described and shown to be consistent with a simple substrate inhibition model.
TL;DR: The 28-kDa protease from human cytomegalovirus (hCMV) has been successfully cloned, expressed, and purified to homogeneity and represents the first fluorescence-based assay for any of the herpes virus proteases.
TL;DR: The aqueous and methanol extracts of thirty-one herbs traditionally used as anti-fever remedies in China were screened for their in vitro inhibition on human immunodeficiency virus type-1 protease.
