It seems like Almost Yesterday that the Aetna Powder Company plant at Fayville, Illinois exploded. The force of the explosion ...

A newly developed gene switch can be triggered through a nitroglycerine patch applied to the skin, a new study has revealed.

Researchers have developed a new gene switch that can be activated using a commercially available nitroglycerine patch applied to the skin. One day, researchers want to use switches of this kind to ...

Researchers have developed a new, highly effective “gene switch” to deliver targeted cell therapy. The ETH Zurich team states that this cell therapy has the potential to offer a more precise and ...

A skin patch with nitroglycerine is the switch that controls an implant underneath (symbolic image). (Image: Josef Kuster / ETH Zurich) The body precisely regulates metabolism, with specialized ...

ETH researchers have developed a new gene switch that can be activated using a commercially available nitroglycerine patch applied to the skin. One day, researchers want to use switches of this kind ...

The reason is that the switch can be triggered using the long-established active ingredient nitroglycerine, and that the means of application – sticking a patch to the skin – is very simple.

Systemic administration of nitroglycerin (NTG) can be utilized as a human and animal model of migraine. NTG is enzymatically converted to nitric oxide (NO) in the body, probably by a mitochondrial ...
