Cell–cell junctions form the structural and functional backbone of multicellular tissues, coupling adhesive complexes with the actomyosin cytoskeleton to regulate barrier function, tissue remodelling ...

In many animal tissues, stem cells continually divide to create new cells that replace old or damaged ones. However, this capacity requires strict regulation, as uncontrolled stem cell proliferation ...

How do blood vessels form to reliably supply the body with oxygen and nutrients? A research team at the University of Basel has uncovered a key mechanism by which cells join to build new blood vessels ...

A paper published in Cell highlights how researchers have leveraged AI-based computational protein design to create a novel synthetic ligand that activates the Notch signaling pathway, a key driver in ...
