"Vector Laboratories' lectins provide an extremely consistent and cost-effective way to monitor cell-surface sialylation by flow cytometry, meaning we have the confidence that any observed changes reflect the biology rather than variability in an assay... Read more

Immuno-oncology research spans a wide range of biology, from RNA sensing and metabolism to the nervous system and glycosylation, and each new study adds to our understanding of how the immune system interacts with cancer.

Immuno-oncology research often hinges on the ability to characterize complex biological systems—the tumor microenvironment, effector T cells, immune checkpoints, to name a few. Probing these systems requires tools that reliably capture the spatial biology, perform... Read more

Obesity is a disease with broad causes and effects. The study, diagnosis, and treatment of obesity have implications from the population level down to the individual (but interconnected) biological pathways in each person. The study... Read more

When researchers design a protein expression study, the standard toolkit of IHC, IF, flow cytometry, and other techniques can tell them a great deal about where a protein is and how much of it is... Read more

Organoid research has grown substantially over the past decade and a half. What started with self-organizing intestinal epithelium in basement membrane extract has expanded into a platform used across cancer biology, infectious disease, developmental biology,... Read more

Two Vector scientists were recently interviewed about glycosylation in cancer research and advances in bioconjugation for next-generation therapeutics.
