Balanced salt solution (BSS) in cell culture is multifaceted and has various functions. It serves as an irrigating, transporting, and diluting fluid while maintaining intra- and extracellular osmotic balance. BSS provides cells with water and certain bulk inorganic ions essential for normal cell metabolism. It combines with carbohydrates, such as glucose to act as the principal energy source for cell metabolism. BSS also provides a buffering system to maintain the medium within the physiological pH range (7.2-7.6).
Venomous snakes are important subjects of study in evolution, ecology, and biomedicine. Many venomous snakes have alpha-neurotoxins (α-neurotoxins) in their venom. These toxins bind the alpha-1 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) at the neuromuscular junction, causing paralysis and asphyxia. Several venomous
Connective tissues (CT) support and connect organs together. Understanding the formation of CT is important, as CT deregulation leads to fibrosis. The identification of CT specific markers has contributed to a better understanding of CT function during development. In developing
