Pharmaceutical ads are difficult to avoid in American television programming and a growing number of them promote a class of ...

A research team led by Dr. Tetsuya Muramoto from the Faculty of Science at Toho University has demonstrated the mechanisms by which periodic chemical signal frequencies in cells regulate gene ...

This influx of calcium at the contact site attracts and activates a kinase called CaMKII, a protein known to be important in ...

Credit: Dr. Tetsuya Muramoto The study revealed the mechanisms by which periodic intracellular cAMP signal frequencies regulate transcription factor shuttling between the nucleus and cytoplasm and ...

The primary objective of this pilot study is to enhance our understanding of the IgH phenotype by exploring the intracellular chiral metabolome. Materials and methods: Leukemia cells were isolated ...

Most pathogens, especially the food/water/air-borne germs, would have to interact with the mucosal barrier system in order to invade hosts. Intracellular pathogens such as microsporidia, Mycobacterium ...

New research reveals that brain cells use a muscle-like signaling mechanism to relay information over long distances.

The key lies in extracting the relationship between the signals inside the cells (intracellular signals) and those recorded on their surface (extracellular signals). "We discovered that ...
