2018 Webinars

Watch this webinar to learn about neural progenitor cells (NPCs), ideal in vitro models as they can be induced to differentiate down all three neural lineages. In this webinar we will focus on the Parkinson’s disease-derived NPCs, detailing their neural biomarker expression profiles during dopaminergic neuron differentiation and validating their use in toxicological studies.

This webinar discusses the history of mycoplasma contamination with a focus on current prevention and detection methods. We will also expand on the products and services offered by ATCC for routine mycoplasma testing, highlighting our new PCR-based mycoplasma detection service.

While the regulatory regimes to build networks in synthetic biology has grown from transcription to also include protein or RNA modalities, circuits comprising only protein-protein interactions have yet to be produced. In this webinar, Dr. Mishra discusses the design and optimization of networks comprising solely protein-protein interactions.

This webinar discusses the MEK1 Q56P Mutant-A375 Isogenic Cell Line, which is resistant to both MEK and BRAF inhibitors and sensitive to combination therapies targeting both upstream and downstream elements of the Ras/Raf-MAPK signaling pathway. Learn how this CRISPR-edited isogenic model is ideal for screening and evaluating novel therapeutics and combination treatments targeting multidrug-resistant melanomas.

Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and its reverse (MET) are physiological mechanisms implicated in cancer metastasis. Watch this webinar to learn how CRISPR/Cas9 genome-editing technology was applied to develop a number of RFP- or GFP-tagged reporter cell lines to study EMT and MET phenomena.

The continual emergence of deadly respiratory viruses underscores the importance of effective diagnostic assays, vaccines, and antiviral therapies. In this webinar, we summarize the impact of respiratory viral disease on global health initiatives and discuss the importance of authenticated standards in the development of effective treatment and prevention methods.

In this webinar an ATCC expert taps into ATCC’s vast experience and shares the best practices for culturing cells that ensure optimal results and performance. The information delivered covers all aspects of successful cell culture, including culture initiation, expansion, authentication, and cryopreservation.

hTERT-immortalized primary cells are genetically modified such that the cells exhibit the growth characteristics of a continuous cell but maintain the physiology of a primary cell. This webinar features our broad portfolio of hTERT-immortalized primary cells and provides application data to illustrate how these cell models can easily be incorporated into your workflow.

In this webinar, a microbiology expert from ATCC discusses the techniques used to examine species in the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex. Using phylogenomic techniques to compare the type strains of these species, we discovered that all of these “species” are, in fact, M. tuberculosis.
