Lokivetmab, trade name Cytopoint, is a monoclonal antibody used to treat atopic dermatitis in dogs. [1] It acts against interleukin 31 (IL-31), [2] which is a cytokine involved in causing itchiness (pruritus). [2] Lokivetmab is administered by subcutaneous injection; each dose is effective for four to eight weeks. [3]
The Italian bee has been used for pollination for over 150 years. Sniffer bees or sniffer wasps are insects in the order Hymenoptera that can be trained to perform a variety of tasks to detect substances such as explosive materials or illegal drugs , as well as some human and plant diseases .
Description - includes the proprietary name (if any), nonproprietary name, dosage form(s), qualitative and/or quantitative ingredient information, the pharmacologic or therapeutic class of the drug, chemical name and structural formula of the drug, and if appropriate, other important chemical or physical information, such as physical constants ...
The WHO Model List of Essential Medicines for Children (aka Essential Medicines List for Children [1] or EMLc [1]), published by the World Health Organization (WHO), contains the medications considered to be most effective and safe in children up to twelve years of age to meet the most important needs in a health system.
PD-L1 on the cell surface binds to PD-1 on an immune cell surface, which inhibits immune cell activity. Among PD-L1 functions is a key regulatory role on T cell activities. [3] [4] It appears that (cancer-mediated) upregulation of PD-L1 on the cell surface may inhibit T cells that might otherwise attack. Antibodies that bind to either PD-1 or ...
Buzz about Bees is a 2013 non-fiction book for ages 7+ by Kari-Lynn Winters, published by Fitzhenry & Whiteside.

A cat eating grass – an example of zoopharmacognosy. Zoopharmacognosy is a behaviour in which non-human animals self-medicate by selecting and ingesting or topically applying plants, soils and insects with medicinal properties, to prevent or reduce the harmful effects of pathogens, toxins, and even other animals.
A label-free approach to follow the cytotoxic response of adherent animal cells in real-time is based on electric impedance measurements when the cells are grown on gold-film electrodes. This technology is referred to as electric cell-substrate impedance sensing (ECIS). Label-free real-time techniques provide the kinetics of the cytotoxic ...
