A new role of calcium in the development of muscles has been reported by two RIKEN biologists.

This valuable work presents how PRDM16 plays a critical role during colloid plexus development, through regulating BMP signaling. Solid evidence supports the context-dependent gene regulatory ...

Greatwall, a conserved MAST-like kinase with crucial mitotic entry functions, is curiously absent in worms. Here, the single ...

Megakaryocytes form a three-dimensional (3D) cage composed of laminin and collagen IV connected to the basement membrane surrounding them. This microarchitecture stabilizes megakaryocytes within their ...

In general, chemotherapy medications work by attacking cells or by preventing them from growing and dividing. Cancer cells tend to grow and divide rapidly and uncontrollably, and many chemotherapy ...

Most of the mentioned electrophysiologic changes are probably related to the degeneration of diencephalic dopaminergic neurons, leading to dopamine loss in the striatum and other basal ganglia nuclei, ...

Basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) are keratinocyte tumours that resemble the basal layer of the epidermis, and are the most commonly diagnosed human cancer among persons of European ancestry.

Neurons are cells in the body that are responsible for transmitting electrical signals through the nervous system. Different types of neurons affect the ability to move, which begins as an impulse, or ...

Basal cell carcinomas, the most common form of skin cancer, occur in chronically sun-exposed areas such as the face. Locally advanced tumors in particular can be difficult to treat surgically.

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) A new approach, PERISCOPE, integrates Cell Painting and Optical Pooled Screening to enable genome-scale CRISPR screens, linking cell morphology to gene function ...

McDermott first revealed in 2021 that he had squamous cell carcinoma "several times." He added that he also has had basal cell cancer. According to the American Cancer Society, basal cell and ...
