Dr. Claudia Lanari needs to complete a Microscope Confocal to know better the mechanisms that they allow to design new therapeutic against the breast cancer. For donations of several families already we acquire the first part of the Microscope, which allows to see with high resolution the organization of the cells and to characterize them morphologically to compare them. It is an indispensable tool for the diagnosis. The current Microscope has two láseres, for what we are bordered to seeing an alone protein and an organela, or two proteins only, one of red color and other one of green color. For the technological sophistication and the complexity of the biological systems, we need to incorporate the third laser or color, which would allow to see the interaction between three proteins, or two proteins and the subcellular organelas. This would help to understand the mechanisms that they lead to the cellular growth and to prevent that they happen. ALREADY WE COLLECT $ 165.OOO! FOR THE 1 ª PART OF THE MICROSCOPE. WE NEED 35.000 MORE DOLLARS TO COMPLETE AND TO ADVANCE IT WITH THE PROPOSED AIM.
