However, recent studies have shown that forces exerted through actomyosin-generated contractility can also trigger cellular signalling. Here, the role of such cell-generated forces is examined in ...

The college’s Visualizing Science competition finalists include the winning image of a Logistic Map’s Chaotic Portion by an ...

Plectin drives hepatocellular carcinoma progression and metastasis through cytoskeletal reorganization and oncogenic signaling, making it a promising therapeutic target for overcoming therapy ...

The rate of development of poikilothermic animals, such as insects, fish, and reptiles, is determined by environmental temperature. A research team has recently demonstrated how temperature can ...

Neurite outgrowth underlies the wiring of the nervous system during development and regeneration. Despite a significant body of research, the underlying cytoskeletal mechanics of growth and guidance ...

心脏，作为人体的 “生命引擎”，源源不断地为身体输送血液，维持生命活动。在心脏发育的奇妙旅程中，心肌壁的形成是极为关键的一环。最初，心脏只是一根由单层心肌细胞构成的管子，随后，这些心肌细胞面临着命运的抉择：一些细胞会迁移形成小梁（trabeculae），另一些则留在致密层（compact ...

This study reports valuable findings on the role of Layilin in the motility and suppressive capacity of clonal expanded regulatory T cells (Tregs) in the skin. Although the strength of the study is ...

The mechanical and structural properties of actin cytoskeleton drive various cellular processes, including structural support of the plasma membrane and cellular motility. Actin monomers assemble into ...

Theresa J. Grove received the B.A. degree in biology and anthropology in 1995 from Washington University, St. Louis, MO, and the M.S. degree in zoology and the Ph.D. in marine biology from the ...
