TJU Research Team Revealed Resistance Mechanism of Calcium Channels
With the long-term excessive and frequent use of pesticides, the problem of pesticide-resistance has become increasingly acute, which has brought huge economic losses to agriculture. It’s urgent to understand how these pesticides work and the mechanism of pesticide-resistance. A study by Prof. Yuchi’s team from Tianjin University’s School of Pharmaceutical Science and Technology identified t...

New Discovery on the Phosphorylation Regulation of Calcium-release Channels
Ion channels are important drug targets as well as pesticide targets. A research team led by Prof. Yuchi from School of Pharmaceutical Science and Technology discovered a new phosphorylation regulation mechanism on calcium channels. Their results have been published in the journal BMC Biology entitled Crystal structure of diamondback moth ryanodine receptor Repeat34 domain reveals insect-specif...

A New Era of Cellular Therapy – DMSO-Free Cell Cryopreservation Technology Developed at Tianjin University
Tianjin University scientists have invented a new technology pertinent to dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)-free cryopreservation of Chondrocytes based on the zwitterionic molecule and polymers as cryoprotectants (CPAs), which is the first of its kind in the world. The paper was published in Macromolecules.This technology applies to cryopreservechondrocytes. The new CPAs are non-cytotoxic and present n...

Tracing Methylmercury Sources in Marine Food Web of Chinese Bohai Sea Using Mercury Isotopes
Studies show that mercury (Hg) concentrations in the upper ocean (0-1000m) has now become 2.5 times that of pre-industrial level. Since the inorganic Hg could be transformed into methylmercury (MeHg, the most toxic Hg form) through microbial and chemical methylation, elevated inorganic Hg is expected to increase the production of MeHg in the oceans. The produced MeHg could be bio-accumulated in...
