Researchers discover that the GPR3 receptor acts as an immediate-early gene to jumpstart neuron and synapse development.
Cell signaling is crucial for cells to communicate and function correctly. Disruptions in these pathways, caused by genetic mutations or environmental factors, can lead to uncontrolled cell growth, ...
Many types of cancer are caused by gene mutations in the signalling pathways that control cell growth, such as the hedgehog signalling pathway. A new study from the Karolinska Institutet, published in ...
Heart cells constantly adapt to physical stress, and understanding this process may help improve future approaches to heart ...
A team led by Stanford biologist Bo Wang and lead author Chew Chai has identified a previously unknown type of immune cell in ...
The discovery that tissues use electricity to expel unhealthy cells is part of a surge of renewed interest in the currents flowing through our bodies. We’re used to thinking of the brain as an ...
Researchers at Cornell University chose it for exactly that reason when they set out to study how flowers build precise forms ...
