Abstract: Transfecting blood cells with nucleic acids is a valuable technique for both research and clinical applications. Electroporation has emerged as an effective method for introducing nucleic acids into blood cells by applying short, high-voltage electric pulses. This review provides an overview of electroporation-based methods for transfecting blood cells, focusing on optimization strategies to enhance…

Abstract: Blood transfusion is a critical medical procedure used to restore blood components or replace blood loss. While transfusions are generally safe, there is a potential for adverse reactions and complications. This article aims to provide an overview of the various adverse reactions associated with blood transfusion, including immune and non-immune reactions, infectious complications, and…

Abstract: Transfection of nucleic acids into blood cells holds great potential for various therapeutic applications. Lipid-based transfection reagents have emerged as a promising approach for delivering nucleic acids into cells due to their versatility and biocompatibility. In this study, we aimed to compare and evaluate the efficiency of different lipid-based transfection reagents for delivering nucleic…

A20 cell line is a murine (mouse-derived) B lymphocyte cell line that is often used in immunological research. This cell line was originally derived from a spontaneously arising tumor in a BALB/c mouse. A20 cells are known for their ability to produce immunoglobulins, specifically IgG2a and IgG2b. A20 cells are widely used in the study…

DOHH-2 cell line is a human B-cell lymphoma cell line established from a patient with histiocytic lymphoma, which is a rare subtype of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. DOHH-2 cells are used in research to study the molecular mechanisms, signaling pathways, and potential therapeutic targets related to B-cell lymphomas and other hematological malignancies. These cells provide an in…

The EL4 cell line is a murine (mouse-derived) T lymphocyte cell line, which is frequently used in immunological research. It was originally derived from a spontaneous lymphoma that arose in a C57BL/6 mouse. The EL4 cells exhibit characteristics of mature T cells and are known for their ability to produce cytokines such as interleukin-2 (IL-2)…

HL-60 cell line is a human myeloid leukemia cell line, which was originally derived from the peripheral blood of a patient with acute promyelocytic leukemia. HL-60 cells are widely used in research to study the mechanisms of leukemogenesis, cell differentiation, and drug discovery for various hematological malignancies. HL-60 cells are characterized by their ability to…

K-562 cell line is a human erythromyeloblastoid leukemia cell line, which was originally derived from the bone marrow of a patient with chronic myeloid leukemia. K-562 cells are widely used in research to study the mechanisms of leukemogenesis, cell differentiation, and drug discovery for various hematological malignancies. K-562 cells are characterized by their ability to…

Karpas-299 cell line is a human B-cell lymphoma cell line, which was established from the biopsy of a patient with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, specifically diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Karpas-299 cells are widely used in research to study the molecular mechanisms, signaling pathways, and potential therapeutic targets related to B-cell lymphomas and other hematological malignancies. Karpas-299 cells…
