Abstract
The baculovirus/insect cell expression system is best known, and used, as a research tool for the production of recombinant proteins often requiring post-translational modifications. Although studies on the larger scale use of the system have been reported on for three decades, the recognition of this system as an industrially relevant platform for the production of biologics has only been recently achieved with the approvals of baculovirus-derived human and veterinary vaccines for commercialization. The full utility of baculoviruses, however, does not end with the production of recombinant proteins; baculoviruses are increasingly being studied for their ability to transduce mammalian cells and use as a therapeutic themselves. There is, therefore, a need to revisit the current state of the art in the bioprocessing of baculoviruses as the product. This paper is an extensive review of what is currently known about the amplification and recovery of baculoviruses and highlights the gaps that have not been focused on in the midst of optimizing this system for protein production.

Melatonin Signaling in Health and Disease
Melatonin regulates a multitude of physiological functions, including circadian rhythms, acting as a scavenger of free radicals, an anti-inflammatory agent, a modulator of mitochondrial homeostasis, an antioxidant, and an enhancer of nitric oxide bioavailability. AANAT is the rate-limiting enzyme responsible for converting serotonin to NAS, further converted to melatonin by ...read more
Programmed Cell Death Genes in Oncology: Pioneering Therapeutic and Diagnostic Frontiers
Programmed Cell Death (PCD) is recognized as a pivotal biological mechanism with far-reaching effects in the realm of cancer therapy. This complex process encompasses a variety of cell death modalities, including apoptosis, autophagic cell death, pyroptosis, and ferroptosis, each of which contributes to the intricate landscape of cancer development and ...read more
