General description

Balanced Salt solution participates in providing a buffer system to maintain the medium in optimum pH range (7.2-7.6), irrigating and diluting while maintaining the intra- and extracellular osmotic balance. It helps to maintain the normal cell metabolism by giving water and bulk inorganic ions. Balanced Salt solution provides the energy source for cell metabolism by supplying carbohydrates such as glucose.

Application

Earle′s Balanced Salts has been used:
  • to incubate hepatocellular carcinoma cell line
  • as a component of embryo culture medium for washing rabbit embryos
  • to culture mouse embryonic neuroretina

Amino-acid metabolism plays a vital role in mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling, which is the pivot in colorectal cancer (CRC). Upregulated chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA) activity contributes to the regulation of metabolism in cancer cells. Previously, we found that sorting

Autophagy is an important catabolic process, which sustains intracellular homeostasis and lengthens cell survival under stress. Here we identify the ankyrin-repeat-containing, SH3-domain-containing, and proline-rich region-containing protein 2 (ASPP2), a haploinsufficient tumor suppressor, as a molecular regulator of starvation-induced autophagy in
