In Vivo: are those in which the effects of various biological entities are tested on whole, living organisms or cells, usually animals, including humans, and plants, as opposed to a tissue extract or dead organism.
Therapeutic development for human diseases continues to face obstacles, particularly in translating targets or compounds identified by in vitro screening campaigns to valid targets or efficac...
Regulatory non coding RNAs, including microRNAs (miRNAs) and long non coding RNAs (lncRNAs), have shown to be essential for animal development and viability, yet dissecting the relevance of i...
