Glogene Bio Science develops and
commercializes novel reagents for
the scientific study of human
biology and disease and for the
production of new diagnostic assays
and potential therapies of such
diseases. These novel reagents
include antibodies, gene and protein
expression systems, and arrays of
various cells and tissues for use in
studies of functional genomics.
Areas of biological interest at
Glogene Bio Science include cancer, apoptosis
(programmed cell death), molecular
signaling pathways, cellular aging,
and metabolic and infectious
diseases..

The GateKeepers of Innate
Immunity
Innate immunity as the first
line of defense
The innate immune system is
an ancient host defense
mechanism found in almost
every multicellular organism
from plants to humans. In
invertebrates it is the sole
mechanism of defense against
pathogens but in higher
vertebrates constitutes the
first line of defense...
Immunology can be broadly
described as the study of
cells and molecules which
recognize and evoke
responses to antigens or
ligands through Innate or
Adaptive Immune mechanisms...
Cancer is the overall
umbrella term for many
diseases which all share at
least one common
characteristic –all cancers
evolve from abnormal cells
undergoing unregulated
growth. Sometimes the
additional cells form a
solid mass or tumor which
may be either benign or
malignant. Benign tumors can
be removed and may not grow
back...
NF-kB (Nuclear Factor-KappaB)
is a heterodimeric protein
composed of different
combinations of members of
the Rel family of
transcription factors. The
Rel/NF-kB family of
transcription factors are
involved mainly in
stress-induced, immune, and
inflammatory responses...
Cell death is a fundamental
aspect of the life cycle of
the eukaryotic cell.
Homeostasis implies a
balance between cell
proliferation and cell
death, and this balance is
essential for the
development and maintenance
of multicellular organisms...
